NUTRITIONAL STATUS AND CARDIAC AUTOPHAGY

Nutritional Status and Cardiac Autophagy

Autophagy is necessary for the degradation of long-lasting proteins and nonfunctional organelles, and is activated to promote cellular survival.However, overactivation of autophagy may deplete essential molecules and organelles responsible for cellular survival.Lifelong calorie restriction by 40% has been shown to increase the cardiac expression of

Clustering the annotation space of proteins

Abstract Background Current protein Storage Shelf clustering methods rely on either sequence or functional similarities between proteins, thereby limiting inferences to one of these areas.Results Here we report a new approach, named CLAN, which clusters proteins according to both annotation and sequence similarity.This approach is extremely fast, c
