Compression of Large Sets of Sequence Data Reveals Fine Diversification of Functional Profiles in Multigene Families of Proteins: A Study for Peptidyl-Prolyl <i>cis/trans</i> Isomerases (PPIase)

In this technical note, we describe analyses of more than 15,000 sequences of FK506-binding proteins (FKBP) and cyclophilins, also known as peptidyl-prolyl <i>cis/trans</i> isomerases (PPIases). We have developed a novel way of displaying relative changes of amino acid (AA)-residues at a...

description In this technical note, we describe analyses of more than 15,000 sequences of FK506-binding proteins (FKBP) and cyclophilins, also known as peptidyl-prolyl <i>cis/trans</i> isomerases (PPIases). We have developed a novel way of displaying relative changes of amino acid (AA)-residues at a given sequence position by using heat-maps. This type of representation allows simultaneous estimation of conservation level in a given sequence position in the entire group of functionally-related paralogues (multigene family of proteins). We have also proposed that at least two FKBPs, namely FKBP36, encoded by the <i>Fkbp6</i> gene and FKBP51, encoded by the <i>Fkbp5</i> gene, can form dimers bound via a disulfide bridge in the nucleus. This type of dimer may have some crucial function in the regulation of some nuclear complexes at different stages of the cell cycle.
