This note is a request for information and also an attempt to share what might
be something of interest.  My background in genomics is not good enough to say
if this information is novel or is well established.  I welcome your comments.

As part of a project a cDNA was isolated for a particular binding protein.
From time to time I searched the databases with the cDNA sequence to see if I
could find homology with other sequences which might reveal a conserved motif
for binding the particular ligand.  

Searches through EMBL and Genbank using FASTA were uninformative, they pulled
a number of the homologous binding proteins across the various species.

Eventually, I tried TFASTA.  I ran the predicted peptide sequence of the
binding protein against Gen:EMBL translated in all six reading frames.
I got two hits-both very high quality.  What was interesting was that both hits
were from the biosynthetic enzyme for the ligand of the binding protein I was
working with.  Serendipity or a real biological significance?. I tried to align
the nucleotide sequences of the hits with my cDNA but could find no match.
Finally, after trying every possible combination, I tried aligning with opposite
strands.  This is where I had success-the hit on the biosynthetic gene was
on a genomic sequence and the area of homology with the binding protein was in
the 3' untranslated region of the synthetase.  Starting with that last 
nucleotide on the 3' untranslated strand of the synthetase, the binding protein
protein amino acid sequence was read off in two overlapping stretches.
In all, there is 90% amino acid homology,and this is across species so with 
conservative substitution, this may be as high as a perfect match if I could
use the homologous genomic sequences.  However, they are not in the databases.

Also interesting,the boundary of the two overlapping regions is marked by a 
peculiar motif.  The overlapping stretches are in different reading frames.

Is this unusual?  Can anyone direct me to a reference which might explain the
phenomenon (if it is such!).  I have looked for intron/exon structure but
the cDNA stretches are so close together it looks more like a reverse transcript
Is this worth a note in one of the Genomics Journals?

   Can anyone refer me to a protein database or a database search utility
   which can select a protein based on the Molecular Weight and one other
   physical characteristic (i.e. the Isoelectric Point).


   Thank you in advance for your assistance.

You can do this at the WWW Expasy Molecular Biology Server maintained by
Amos Bairoch et al. in Geneva:

http://expasy.hcuge.ch/www/expasy-top.html

Go to "Tools" and then to "GuessProt"

or directly go to:
http://expasy.hcuge.ch/www/guess-prot.html


Hope this helps,

Four important items follow: How to cancel e-mail subscriptions to
BIOSCI newsgroups, BIOSCI archive searching, the BIOSCI FAQ, and the
BIOSCI User Address Directory form.  If you have not yet listed
yourself in our BIOSCI user directory, please take a few minutes to
complete and return the form below.  If your personal information has
changed since you listed yourself, please send us a complete new
updated form.  We can not make manual revisions to existing entries.

				Sincerely,

	 **** How to cancel a BIOSCI e-mail subscription ****

If you want to cancel your e-mail subscription to this group, 
PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR UNSUBSCRIBE REQUEST TO THE NEWSGROUP ADDRESS
(NOR REPLY TO A MESSAGE POSTED TO THE NEWSGROUP)!!!

This would send your request to all of the readers of the newsgroup,
but it might still not be seen by the BIOSCI staff - thus you would
annoy many people and possibly not accomplish your goal anyway.

IF YOU ARE LOCATED IN THE AMERICAS OR PACIFIC RIM COUNTRIES, please
send a message to

biosci@net.bio.net

Instructions on how to subscribe/unsubscribe will be returned
automatically, so the contents of your message do not matter.

IF YOU ARE LOCATED IN EUROPE, AFRICA OR CENTRAL ASIA, please send a
message to

MXT@dl.ac.uk

containing the word 

help

in the body of the message to retrieve e-mail server instructions.
Any text placed on the Subject: line of your message will be ignored,
so be sure to put the "help" command in the body of the message.

If you need personal assistance, a BIOSCI staff member can be
contacted at either of the following addresses.  Please contact the
address designated for your location.

Support Address                      Location
---------------                      --------
biosci@daresbury.ac.uk               Europe, Africa, and Central Asia
biosci-help@net.bio.net              Americas and the Pacific Rim


		 **** SEARCHING BIOSCI ARCHIVES ****

The easiest way to search the BIOSCI archives is to use Mosaic or
another World Wide Web browser and connect to the BIOSCI WWW home page
at URL http://www.bio.net/.  Select the hypertext link to the BIOSCI
archives.  This gives you read access to all newsgroup messages and
the ability to search the indexes described below.

You can also use gopher software and connect over the Internet to
net.bio.net, the U.S. BIOSCI computer.  We maintain three indexes
which are searchable from the main gopher menu on net.bio.net: (1) an
index of all BIOSCI postings; (2) an index of individual journal
article references from the Table of Contents postings on the
BIO-JOURNALS newsgroup; and (3) an index of BIOSCI users including
regular mail and e-mail addresses, phone/FAX numbers, research
interests, and newsgroup participation.

E-mail users can search the BIOSCI archives by using our waismail
e-mail server.  For instructions send the message

help

to waismail@net.bio.net.  Leave the Subject: line blank (anything
entered on the Subject: line is ignored).

WAIS software can also be used to search the archives as described in
the BIOSCI FAQ (see below).

Finally, the BIOSCI archive files are accessible by anonymous FTP to
net.bio.net [134.172.2.69] in the directory pub/BIOSCI.


       **** BIOSCI FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) SHEET ****

New users of BIOSCI/bionet may want to read the "Frequently Asked
Questions" or "FAQ" sheet for BIOSCI.  The FAQ provides details on how
to participate in these forums and fix problems that you might
encounter in using the newsgroups.  The FAQ and other BIOSCI
documentation is available through our WWW home page at URL
http://www.bio.net/.  It is also available for anonymous FTP from
net.bio.net [134.172.2.69] in pub/BIOSCI/doc/biosci.FAQ or for
retrieval by gopher to net.bio.net, port 70.  It may also be requested
by sending the command

info faq

in the body of an e-mail message to the Internet address
biosci-server@net.bio.net.  Please do not enter the info faq command
on the Subject: line of your message since the e-mail server ignores
text on the Subject: line.

The FAQ is also posted on the first of each month to the newsgroup
BIONEWS/bionet.announce immediately following the posting of the
BIOSCI information sheet.


	       **** BIOSCI USER ADDRESS DIRECTORY ****

Please take this opportunity to add your name and address information
to the BIOSCI User Address Database if you have not already done so.

Below is the address form that we would like each reader of the
BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups to complete and return if you would like to
be listed in our database.  The database serves as a directory that
enables biologists, who are currently using (or even just reading) the
BIOSCI newsgroups, to look up e-mail addresses and other information
about our users.

The address database is reindexed nightly for WAIS, waismail, gopher,
and WWW access (the URL is http://www.bio.net).  If you have access to
gopher, connect to net.bio.net to search the database.  If you have
access to WAIS, please use our WAIS source biologists-addresses.src.
If you are not on the Internet, please use our waismail server (send
the word "help" to waismail@net.bio.net to get instructions; any text
on the Subject: line of your message will be ignored, so put the help
command in the body of the mail message.).

Please carefully follow the instructions for completing the form
below and return it to either of the following two addresses
(whichever is more convenient for you).  Thanks in advance for taking
the time to complete and return the form.

	    IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Please enter all responses after the : on each line, leaving one (1)
blank space after the : (i.e., before the start of your text).

Please do NOT extend your responses past the end of each line (80
characters).

PLEASE DO NOT alter any of the field identifiers such as "first name: ". 
If you have nothing to enter after a field identifier, PLEASE LEAVE IT
- do not delete it even if there is no data on the line in question.

Several lines are provided at the end of the form for comments, but,
please adhere to the line length restriction.

On the date: line, please enter the date in the DD-MM-YY format, e.g.,
15-05-93 for 15 May 1993.  This line will tell others when the
information was last updated.  Please be sure to include the 0's for
single digit days or months, e.g., 15-05-93, not 15-5-93.

Note that the "e-mail network: " line below is for specifying, e.g.,
"Internet," "BITNET," "EARN," "JANET," or whatever other network that
your computer may be on.

If you are uncertain about any field, please feel free to leave it
blank, but please DO NOT DELETE the field identifier from the form!

In the first field below, "New information or Update ...", please
enter "N" if this is the first time that you have registered in the
directory or "U" if you are correcting a listing that you sent to us
previously.

The comment: lines may be used for anything that you like but PLEASE
DO NOT DELETE THEM FROM THE FORM OR ALTER THEM.  One suggested use is
to list the names of the newsgroups in which you participate.  Please
use the MAILING LIST name (see below - the latest version of the list
can be requested from biosci@net.bio.net) instead of the USENET name
even if you don't participate by e-mail.  WAIS might get confused by
the periods in the USENET names.  This allows one to retrieve via WAIS
or waismail the list of participants in a particular group.

For example:

comment: ARABIDOPSIS PLANT-BIOLOGY BIONEWS

On the comment: lines
use these names below ---- NOT the USENET names below

                       WORKSHOP FOR BIOMEDICAL RESEARCHERS
                              Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
                              June 4-9, 1995



Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center (PSC) is again offering a five-day workshop on
"Nucleic Acid and Protein Sequence Analysis," June 4-9, 1995.  It is
funded by a grant from the National Center for Human Genome Research of
the National Institutes of Health.

The workshop will familiarize biomedical researchers
in applying supercomputing resources to
problems of concern in macromolecular sequence analysis.  Emphasis will be
on alignment of and pattern extraction from multiple sequences.
Participants will gain practical experience on PSC's Cray C-90 and T3D in
(1) comparing and aligning sequences, (2) identifying informative patterns
in a set of sequences; and (3) using extracted informative patterns to
identify related sequences.  Researchers will also learn several approaches
to database searching and  multiple sequence alignment, how to use profile
analysis effectively, and how to identify patterns in their sequences.
Participants are encouraged to bring sequence analysis problems from their
current research.  Extensive documentation will be given at the outset on
the PSC computing environment as well as on the specific programs
to be employed in the workshop.  No prior supercomputing experience is
required.

Workshop leaders are Dr. Gary Churchill, Cornell University, Dr. Michael
Gribskov, San Diego Supercomputing Center, and Dr. Hugh Nicholas, PSC.

A limited number of grants to cover travel and hotel accommodations are
available for U.S. academic participants.  ALL PARTICIPANTS ARE REQUIRED
TO PAY A $135 REGISTRATION FEE, IN ADVANCE, UPON ACCEPTANCE INTO THE WORKSHOP.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMITTING APPLICATIONS IS FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 1995.
Enrollment is lmited to 20 participants.
