This paper presents a simplified and a non-invasive approach to detect psycho-physiological stress by monitoring the acoustic modifications during a stressful conversation. Voice database consists of audio clips from eight different popular FM broadcasts wherein the host of the show vexes the subjects who are otherwise unaware of the charade. The audio clips are obtained from real-life stressful conversations (no simulated emotions). Analysis is done using PRAAT software to evaluate mean fundamental frequency (F0) and formant frequencies (F1, F2, F3, F4) both in neutral and stressed state. Results suggest that F0 increases with stress; however, formant frequency decreases with stress. Comparison of Fourier and chirp spectra of short vowel segment shows that for relaxed speech, the two spectra are similar; however, for stressed speech, they differ in the high frequency range due to increased pitch modulation.","PeriodicalId":35444,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bioinformatics Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJBRA.2015.071942","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66702466","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}

To overcome this issue we try to generate a (three-dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship) 3D-QSAR model that might reflect, at least in part, the differential properties of MMP-12 and MMP-13 active sites compared to each other. The different alignment rules were applied for CoMFA/CoMSIA model development. In an approach the best docked poses were followed by alignment based on their zinc binding group. As it was suggested by comparison of CoMSIA contour maps of MMP-12 with MMP-13, the ligand based approach can find more detailed features of specificity for MMPs that have similar highly flexible active sites, than solely analysis of available crystal structures. The residues Val(194), Leu(214) and Thr(220) of MMP-13 were suggested to be investigated for flexibility upon binding of different ligands.","PeriodicalId":35444,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bioinformatics Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJBRA.2015.070139","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66702386","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 conventional method of detection of DNA mutations by the human eye may not detect the minute variations in PCR-SSCP bands, which may lead to false positive or false negative results. The detection by photographic images may contain a blare (noise) caused during the time of photography; therefore, image processing techniques were used to reduce image noise. PCR-SSCP gels of T2DM patients (n = 100) and controls (n = 100) were initially photographed with equal ratio of pixels and later subjected to a two-stage analysis: feature extraction and PNN. The evaluation of the results was done by quality training and the accuracy was up to 95%, and the human eye analysis showed 80% mutation detection rate. This study proves to be very reliable and gives accurate and fast detection for mutation analysis in diabetes.

The major hindrance to cure listeriosis is the unavailability of specific or selectable drug targets. At present, antibiotics used to cure the disease are not specific and insufficient to manage the disease efficiently. Therefore, in order to search specific drugs, here, we used interactome analysis to search specific drug targets which may provide novel templates for drug designing having better efficacy without any potential adverse effects. The complete genome of L. monocytogenes having 2846 proteins has been analysed. We found 11 proteins as putative drug targets. The sequence and interactome analyses revealed that 11 proteins are non-homologous to human, but essential for pathogen and hence may be considered as potential therapeutic targets.","PeriodicalId":35444,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bioinformatics Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJBRA.2015.070138","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66702375","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}

While the experimental analysis is often time consuming involving number of experiments like pulldown assays, they are not necessarily limiting the ability to detect novel protein interactors. In this work, we discuss the role and putative interactors of SNAI2, a slug protein which is involved in the development of cancer progression. The protein interactions have been deciphered by domain pair exclusion method which gives confidence to already precluded interaction pairs. Additionally, conservation patterns of the slug protein have also been analysed by estimating site-specific evolutionary rates at structural level. Based upon the computational analysis, we consider HNF4A could be a putative candidate to study zinc finger protein slug. We believe, this candidate study augmented with structural conservation will definitely provide novel insights into the design and discovery of new interactions for zinc finger class of proteins besides providing possible clues for discovery of various cancer types associated with this class of proteins.","PeriodicalId":35444,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bioinformatics Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJBRA.2015.070141","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66702404","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}

They are involved in physiological processes like glucose homeostasis (glucagon and glucagon-like peptide-1), calcium homeostasis and bone turnover (parathyroid hormone and calcitonin), and control of the stress axis (corticotropin-releasing factor). Most of the GPCR structures and their functions are still unknown. Thus, the study of amino acid association patterns can be useful in prediction of their structure and functions. In view of above, in this paper, an attempt has been made to explore amino acid association patterns in class B GPCRs and their relationships with secondary structures and physiochemical properties. The fuzzy association rule mining is employed to take care of uncertainty due to variation in length of sequences. The association rules have been generated with the help of patterns discovered in the sequences.","PeriodicalId":35444,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bioinformatics Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJBRA.2015.069193","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66702207","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 objective of the present study is to estimate the uncertainty associated with the final intensity ratio at each spot in cDNA microarray chips and also to explore the role of pixel intensity correlations in statistical inferences of gene expression levels. We estimate uncertainty at each spot using the theory of error propagation under two different situations: (1) when there is no correlation between pixel intensities and (2) when the pixel intensities are positively correlated. The inverses of these estimated uncertainties are used as weights in downstream analysis to test the significance of each gene. The analysis was verified on a data downloaded from the GEO database. Our study shows that the uncertainty and statistical inference of gene expression levels depend on correlation between pixel intensities within a spot.","PeriodicalId":35444,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bioinformatics Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJBRA.2015.069198","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66702273","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}
