The purpose of the study is to develop a simple algorithm for the diagnosis of some cardiac abnormalities. Five types of cardiac phenomena are considered and for each of these some particular records from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database are selected. For these records DWT coefficients up to level 4 are calculated in the Matlab 7.4.0 environment, using different types of mother wavelets. The maximum value of the approximation coefficients of level 4 is selected as the indicating parameter, which is used to distinguish between different abnormalities. A comparison is made between the performances of different types of mother wavelets to select the mother wavelet providing the best result.","PeriodicalId":215457,"journal":{"name":"2010 5th International Symposium on Health Informatics and Bioinformatics","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126842525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Second, a feature extraction method that is based on wavelet transforms and denoising technique for extraction of important task-relevant features. Finally, support vector machines have been using in the classification of mental tasks with wavelet input coefficients. By applying the methodology for 4-subjects in average we achieved 92 % classification rates. However, the results depend on the type of the task that subject were performing. It is expect that the proposed method can be a basic technology for brain-computer interface by combining wavelets with support vector machines.","PeriodicalId":215457,"journal":{"name":"2010 5th International Symposium on Health Informatics and Bioinformatics","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129287202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The flexibility of the proteins is evaluated using temperature factors. Party hubs are found to be more flexible than date hubs, which in turn are more flexible than non-hub proteins. These may explain how a hub interacts with its partners specifically.","PeriodicalId":215457,"journal":{"name":"2010 5th International Symposium on Health Informatics and Bioinformatics","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114520624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consisting of a JmjC, a JmjN, two PHD and two tandem tudor domains, JMJD2A recognizes and binds to four different methylated histone peptides: H3K4me3, H4K20me3, H4K20me2 and H3K9me3, via its tudor domains. Of the four histone peptides, only recognition of the H3K4me3 and H4K20me3 by JMJD2A-tudor has been identified. In this study, we investigated the recognition of trimethylated H3K9 by the tandem tudor domains of JMJD2A. Using the molecular dynamics simulations, we performed normal mode and molecular mechanics - Poisson Boltzmann / generalized born - surface area (MM-PB/GB-SA) analysis to find the entropic and enthalpic contributions to binding free energy respectively. We showed that binding of the ligand is mainly driven by favorable van der Waals interactions made after complexation. Our findings suggest that, upon complex formation, H3K9me3 peptide adopts a similar binding mode and the same orientation with H3K4me3 peptide.","PeriodicalId":215457,"journal":{"name":"2010 5th International Symposium on Health Informatics and Bioinformatics","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130097973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One common antibiotic resistance mechanism utilized by bacteria is the production of beta-lactamase enzymes that cleave the amide bond in beta-lactam ring rendering the antibiotic ineffective. One way to combat this problem is to use beta-lactamase inhibitors in combination with beta-lactam antibiotics. Beta-lactamase inhibitor protein (BLIP) is an effective inhibitor of class A beta-lactamases such as TEM-1 and SHV-1. In the current research, the binding of BLIP to TEM-1 and to SHV-1 beta lactamase was investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. The binding free energies of BLIP complex with TEM-1 and SHV-1 betalactamases were calculated using Molecular Mechanic Poisson Bolztmann Surface Area (MM-PBSA) methodology. It was found that BLIP has significant differences in binding affinities toward TEM-1 and SHV-1 beta-lactamases.","PeriodicalId":215457,"journal":{"name":"2010 5th International Symposium on Health Informatics and Bioinformatics","volume":"2020 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126839158","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
