Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure01:11

Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure

2.9K
The partial pressure of a gas is a measure of the thermodynamic activity of the gas's molecules. The pressure that a gas would create if it occupied the total volume available is called the gas's partial pressure. If two or more gases are mixed together in a container, the molecules move randomly and collide with each other, causing them to reach thermal equilibrium. When the gases have the same temperature, their molecules have the same average kinetic energy. Thus, each gas obeys the...

The Delta-to-Delta Circuit01:17

The Delta-to-Delta Circuit

1.3K
In a delta-delta configuration, the source and the load are connected in a delta manner, forming a closed loop that divides the network into three distinct phases. This configuration makes the phase voltages identical to line voltages. Assuming the sources are in positive sequence, the phase voltages can be expressed directly without having a neutral wire.

The Delta-to-Y Circuit01:16

The Delta-to-Y Circuit

1.0K
In the delta-wye circuit, the source is delta-connected, while the load is in a wye configuration. This means that the phase voltage of the delta-connected source is equal to the line voltage of the wye-connected load. The connection between two-line currents originates from the delta-connected source. The phase difference in the balanced system allows for calculating one line current given the other, utilizing the positive sequence of phases. In the delta-wye system, the phase currents in the...

Restarting Stalled Replication Forks

6.5K
DNA replication is initiated at sites containing predefined DNA sequences known as origins of replication. DNA is unwound at these sites by the minichromosome maintenance (MCM) helicase and other factors such as Cdc45 and the associated GINS complex.The unwound single strands are protected by replication protein A (RPA) until DNA polymerase starts synthesizing DNA at the 5’ end of the strand in the same direction as the replication fork. To prevent the replication fork from falling apart,...

The Atomic Theory of Matter02:59

The Atomic Theory of Matter

136.6K
The earliest recorded discussion of the basic structure of matter comes from ancient Greek philosophers. Leucippus and Democritus argued that all matter was composed of small, finite particles that they called atomos, meaning “indivisible.” Later, Aristotle and others came to the conclusion that matter consisted of various combinations of the four “elements” — fire, earth, air, and water — and could be infinitely divided. Interestingly, these philosophers...

Area of Science:

  • Structural biology
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • The Dali server is a long-standing network service for 3D protein structure comparison.
  • Comparing protein structures can uncover biological similarities missed by sequence analysis alone.
  • Crystallographers routinely use the Dali server for newly solved protein structures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the latest updates to the Dali server, focusing on enhanced analytics for sequence and structure conservation.
  • To describe the server's capabilities in performing various types of protein structure comparisons.
  • To highlight new visualization and alignment features.

Main Methods:

  • The Dali server performs three main types of structure comparisons: PDB search, pairwise comparison, and all-against-all comparison.
  • Structural superimpositions are visualized using the WebGL viewer PV.
  • Structural alignment is enhanced by sequence similarity searches against UniProt, with results compressed into aligned sequence logos.

Main Results:

  • The server provides lists of similar structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB).
  • It generates structural similarity matrices, dendrograms, and multidimensional scaling projections for user-specified structure sets.
  • Combined structure-sequence alignment information is presented as a stack of aligned sequence logos.

Conclusions:

  • The updated Dali server offers powerful tools for analyzing protein structure and sequence conservation.
  • Enhanced analytics and visualization improve the discovery of biological relationships.
  • The server continues to be a valuable resource for structural biologists.
