Improving the accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction using structural alignment
Download2006
Gallin, W.J., Wishart, D.S., Montgomerie, S., Sundararaj, S.
Background: The accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction has steadily improved over the past 30 years. Now many secondary structure prediction methods routinely achieve an accuracy (Q3) of about 75%. We believe this accuracy could be further improved by including structure (as opposed...

Introgression potential between safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) and wild relatives of the genus Carthamus
Download2011
Christianson, Jed, Mayerhofer, Marion, Topinka, Deborah, Good, Allen G., Mayerhofer, Reinhold
Background: Safflower, Carthamus tinctorius, is a thistle that is grown commercially for the production of oil and birdseed and recently, as a host for the production of transgenic pharmaceutical proteins. C. tinctorius can cross with a number of its wild relatives, creating the possibility of...

Sperling, F. A. H., MacQuarrie, C. J. K., Langor, D. W.
Mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I and 11 genes were sequenced for two invasive alien birch (Betula L. [Betulaceae]) leaf-mining sawflies, Profenusa thomsoni (Konow, 1886) (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae) and Scolioneura betuleti (King, 1816) (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae), accidentally introduced...

Wishart, D.S., Neal, S., Berjanskii, M.V.
Every year between 500 and 1000 peptide and protein structures are determined by NMR and deposited into the Protein Data Bank. However, the process of NMR structure determination continues to be a manually intensive and time-consuming task. One of the most tedious and error-prone aspects of this...

PROTEUS2: A Web Server for Comprehensive Protein Structure Prediction and Structure-Based Annotation
Download2008
Shrivistava, S., Berjanskii, M., Wishart, D.S., Cruz, J.A., Arndt, D., Montgomerie, S.
PROTEUS2 is a web server designed to support comprehensive protein structure prediction and structure-based annotation. PROTEUS2 accepts either single sequences (for directed studies) or multiple sequences (for whole proteome annotation) and predicts the secondary and, if possible, tertiary...

Selection of the sex-linked Inhibitor of Apoptosis in Mountain Pine Beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) driven by enhanced expression during early overwintering
Download2018
Horianopoulos, Linda C., Boone, Celia K., Samarasekera, Gayathri, Kandola, Gurkirat K., Murray, Brent W.
The mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) is an insect native to western North America; however, its geographical range has recently expanded north in BC and east into Alberta. To understand the population structure in the areas of expansion, 16 gene‐linked microsatellites were screened...
