This work investigates the hydration and interaction of cell-adhesion peptides, specifically RGD and YIGSR, with the hydroxyapatite surface and TiO2 surface in cluster and periodic boundary condition approaches. The comparison of adsorption energies of RGD and YIGSR on both Hydroxyapatite (HA) and TiO2 surfaces reveals the similarities in adsorption energy and orientation pattern of peptides on both surfaces. The models demonstrate that initial peptide orientation affects adsorption energy for both. YIGSR is consistently more strongly adsorbed to HA-(001) surfaces and steps than RGD for both the surfaces. In addition, RGD maintained its “hairpin”-like structure during adsorption on a flat HA-(001) surface, and a slightly “relaxed hairpin” structure on TiO2 (110) surface. Adsorption energies of RGD on TiO2 (110) surface are significantly more favorable compared to HA-(001) surface, suggesting potential role of TiO2 as biomedical implants when tissue regeneration occurs via cell signaling.展开更多

Based on the analysis of this spectrum by using the method of inter coefficient difference (ICD), it compares protein sequences of ND5 and ND6 category. Results obtained agree with the standard ones. The purpose of the paper is to extend the ICD method of comparison of DNA sequences to comparison of protein sequences. The topic of discussion is to develop a novel method of comparing protein sequences. The main achievements of the work are that the method applied is completely new of its kind, so far as protein sequence comparison is concerned and moreover the results of comparison agree with the previous results obtained by other methods for the same category of protein sequences.展开更多

The recent technology under development to overview the situation is the concept of Cognitive Radio (CR). Recently the Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are being considered for the topic. AI is the core of the cognitive engine that examines the external and internal environment parameters that leads to some postulations for QoS improvement. In this article, we propose a new Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model for detection of a spectrum hole. The model is trained with some pertinent features over a channel like SNR, channel capacity, bandwidth efficiency etc. The channel capacity status could be identified in a quantized index form .

This condensed matrix can be nicely applied as a protein sequence descriptor. In fact, with such a condensed representation, comparison of two protein sequences is reduced to a comparison of two such 20 × 20 matrices. As each square matrix has a unique Alley Index/normalized Alley Index, such index is conveniently used in getting distance matrix to construct Phylogenetic trees of different protein sequences. Finally protein sequence comparison is made based on these Phylogenetic trees. In this paper three types viz., NADH dehydrogenase subunit 3 (ND3), subunit 4 (ND4) and subunit 5 (ND5) of protein sequences of nine species, Human, Gorilla, Common Chimpanzee, Pygmy Chimpanzee, Fin Whale, Blue Whale, Rat, Mouse and Opossum are used for comparison.展开更多
