Mascot’s fundamental approach to identifying peptides is to calculate the probability whether an observed match between experimental data and peptide sequences found in a reference database has occurred by chance. The match with the lowest probability of occurring by chance is returned as the most significant match.
Hence, it is technically more correct to discuss singular points of a smooth mapping here rather than a singular point of a curve. The above definitions can be extended to cover implicit curves which are defined as the zero set f − 1 ( 0 ) {\displaystyle f^{-1}(0)} of a smooth function , and it is not necessary just to consider ...
Point a is an ordinary point when functions p 1 (x) and p 0 (x) are analytic at x = a. Point a is a regular singular point if p 1 (x) has a pole up to order 1 at x = a and p 0 has a pole of order up to 2 at x = a. Otherwise point a is an irregular singular point.
One type of spline implementation passes through each Cα guide point, producing an exact but choppy curve. Both hand-drawn and most computer ribbons (such as those shown here) are smoothed over about four successive guide points (usually the peptide midpoint) to produce a more visually pleasing and understandable representation.
This peptide consists of a core peptide segment which is typically preceded (and occasionally followed) by a leader peptide segment and is typically ~20-110 residues long. The leader peptide is usually important for enabling enzymatic processing of the precursor peptide via aiding in recognition of the core peptide by biosynthetic enzymes and ...
A peptide hormone is a peptide that acts as a hormone. A proteose is a mixture of peptides produced by the hydrolysis of proteins. The term is somewhat archaic. A peptidergic agent (or drug) is a chemical which functions to directly modulate the peptide systems in the body or brain. An example is opioidergics, which are neuropeptidergics.
Peptide bond formation via dehydration reaction. When two amino acids form a dipeptide through a peptide bond, [1] it is a type of condensation reaction. [2] In this kind of condensation, two amino acids approach each other, with the non-side chain (C1) carboxylic acid moiety of one coming near the non-side chain (N2) amino moiety of the other.
Consider a smooth real-valued function of two variables, say f (x, y) where x and y are real numbers.So f is a function from the plane to the line. The space of all such smooth functions is acted upon by the group of diffeomorphisms of the plane and the diffeomorphisms of the line, i.e. diffeomorphic changes of coordinate in both the source and the target.
