Ligand Binding and Linkage00:49

Ligand Binding and Linkage

4.8K
Allosteric proteins have more than one ligand binding site; the binding of a ligand to any of these sites influences the binding of ligands to the other sites. When a protein is allosteric, its binding sites are called coupled or linked.  In the case of enzymes, the site that binds to the substrate is known as the active site and the other site is known as the regulatory site. When a ligand binds to the regulatory site, this leads to conformational changes in the protein that can influence...

Positron Emission Tomography01:29

Positron Emission Tomography

4.2K
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...

Genomics

Genomics is the science of genomes: it is the study of all the genetic material of an organism. In humans, the genome consists of information carried in 23 pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus, as well as mitochondrial DNA. In genomics, both coding and non-coding DNA is sequenced and analyzed. Genomics allows a better understanding of all living things, their evolution, and their diversity. It has a myriad of uses: for example, to build phylogenetic trees, to improve productivity and...

Synteny and Evolution

3.3K
John H. Renwick first coined the term “synteny” in 1971, which refers to the genes present on the same chromosomes, even if they are not genetically linked. The species with common ancestry tend to show conserved syntenic regions. Therefore, the concept of synteny is nowadays used to describe the evolutionary relationship between species.
Around 80 million years ago, the human and mice lineages diverged from the common ancestor. During the course of evolution, the ancestral...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Ontology Engineering
  • Computational Linguistics

Background:

  • SNOMED CT represents patient data as concepts.
  • Realism-based ontologies view patient data as instances of types.
  • Integrating these different representational paradigms is challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility of a first-order logic (FOL) framework for translating SNOMED CT into realism-based ontologies.
  • To bridge the terminological view of SNOMED CT with the realism-based view of the Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) and the Ontology for General Medical Science (OGMS).

Main Methods:

  • Developed a first-order logic (FOL) framework.
  • Translated SNOMED CT's EL++ axioms into FOL.
  • Created bridging axioms between SNOMED CT and realism-based ontologies.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated the feasibility of translating SNOMED CT's terminological view into a realism-based view.
  • SNOMED CT exhibits excellent terminological coverage in the studied domain.
  • Automatic translation of SNOMED CT axioms into FOL is achievable.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed FOL framework offers a viable method for federating terminologies with ontologies.
  • This research highlights an area for further R&D in medical data interoperability.
  • Potential for new methods in integrating diverse biomedical knowledge resources.
