SUMMARY:Prof. Alex Bronstein and Dr. Ailie Marx from the Faculty of Compute
 r Science at the Technion - "A twist in the protein folding dogma" [No Cat
 egories]
DESCRIPTION:Location: Biology auditorium  Prof. Alex Bronstein and Dr. Aili
 e Marx \n Affiliation: Faculty of Computer Science at the Technion\n Host:
 Prof. Benjamin Podbilewicz  \n Abstract:\nThe fact that some amino acid ch
 ains fold alone into natively structured and fully functional proteins in 
 solution\, has led to the commonly accepted “one sequence-one structure
 ” notion. However\, within the cell\, protein chains are not formed in i
 solation\, to fold alone once produced. Rather\, they are translated from 
 genetic coding instructions (for which many versions exist to code a singl
 e amino acid sequence) and begin to fold before the chain has fully formed
  through a process known as co-translational folding. The effect of coding
  and co-translational folding mechanisms on the final protein structure ar
 e not well understood. There are no studies showing side-by-side structura
 l analysis of protein pairs having alternative synonymous coding. We are u
 sing the wealth of high-resolution protein structures available in the Pro
 tein Data Bank to computationally explore the association between genetic 
 coding and local protein structure and pinpoint positions of alternate con
 formations in homologous proteins which cannot be readily explained by the
  amino acid sequence or protein environment\nBronstein lab: https://bron.c
