pLogo: a probabilistic approach to visualizing sequence motifs

TLDR
The pLogo is described, a motif visualization in which residue heights are scaled relative to their statistical significance, in which real-time conditional probability calculations and visualizations are supported.
Abstract
Methods for visualizing protein or nucleic acid motifs have traditionally relied upon residue frequencies to graphically scale character heights. We describe the pLogo, a motif visualization in which residue heights are scaled relative to their statistical significance. A pLogo generation tool is publicly available at http://plogo.uconn.edu/ and supports real-time conditional probability calculations and visualizations.

Quantitative Profiling of Protein O-GlcNAcylation Sites by an Isotope-Tagged Cleavable Linker.

TL;DR: An isotope-tagged cleavable linker (isoTCL) strategy was developed, which enabled isotopic labeling of O-GlcNAc through bioorthogonal conjugation of affinity tags and demonstrated the application of the isoTCL in mapping and quantification ofO-GlCNAcylation sites in HeLa cells.

Systematic and Quantitative Assessment of Hydrogen Peroxide Reactivity With Cysteines Across Human Proteomes.

TL;DR: A chemoproteomic platform to systematically and quantitatively analyze the reactivity of thousands of cysteines toward H2O2 in human cells is described and provides an opportunity to predict oxidation-triggered protein conformational changes.

iDNA6mA-Rice: A Computational Tool for Detecting N6-Methyladenine Sites in Rice.

TL;DR: A machine learning-based method of predicting 6mA sites in the rice genome using mono-nucleotide binary encoding and Random Forest to perform the classification and an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.981 was obtained, suggesting that the proposed method had good performance.

GPS-Palm: a deep learning-based graphic presentation system for the prediction of S-palmitoylation sites in proteins.

TL;DR: This work compiled a benchmark data set containing 3098 known S-palmitoylation sites identified from small- or large-scale experiments, and developed a new method named DQD to distinguish data quality weights (DQWs) between the two types of the sites, and designed a new predictor called GPS-Palm.

WebLogo: A Sequence Logo Generator

TL;DR: WebLogo generates sequence logos, graphical representations of the patterns within a multiple sequence alignment that provide a richer and more precise description of sequence similarity than consensus sequences and can rapidly reveal significant features of the alignment otherwise difficult to perceive.

Sequence logos: a new way to display consensus sequences

TL;DR: From these 'sequence logos', one can determine not only the consensus sequence but also the relative frequency of bases and the information content at every position in a site or sequence.

The P-loop--a common motif in ATP- and GTP-binding proteins.

TL;DR: Current knowledge of P-loops is discussed with the additional aim of illustrating the fascinating relationship between protein sequence, structure and function.
