Transcriptomics approaches
The study of the complete set of RNAs (transcriptome) encoded by the genome of a specific cell or organism at a specific time or under a specific set of conditions is called Transcriptomics.
Transcriptomics aims:
I. To catalogue all species of transcripts, including mRNAs, noncoding RNAs and small RNAs.
II. To determine the transcriptional structure of genes, in terms of their start sites, 5′ and 3′ ends, splicing patterns and other post-transcriptional modifications.
III. To quantify the changing expression levels of each transcript during development and under different conditions.
Protein information resource (PIR)
The Protein Information Resource, is an integrated public bioinformatics resource to support genomic and proteomic research, and scientific studies & contains protein sequences databases
Protein sequencing
This document discusses protein sequencing techniques. There are three main methods for determining a protein's amino acid sequence: N-terminal sequencing, C-terminal sequencing, and predicting the sequence from DNA sequencing. N-terminal sequencing involves using methods like Edman degradation to sequentially remove amino acids from the N-terminus and identify them. C-terminal sequencing uses carboxypeptidases to sequentially remove amino acids from the C-terminus over time. DNA sequencing allows predicting the protein sequence by first sequencing the gene that encodes the protein. Protein sequencing is important for understanding cellular processes and developing targeted drugs.
Protein identication characterization
This document provides information on various computational tools and methods for protein identification, characterization, and structure prediction. It discusses tools that use amino acid composition, sequence alignment, peptide mass fingerprinting, and physico-chemical properties to identify proteins. It also describes methods such as Chou-Fasman, GOR, and neural networks that predict protein secondary structure and properties based on amino acid order, propensities, and probabilities.
2 d gel electrophoresis
This document summarizes a seminar presentation on 2D electrophoresis. 2D electrophoresis is a technique used to separate mixed proteins based on their isoelectric point and mass. It involves two sequential electrophoretic steps: iso-electric focusing to separate proteins by charge, followed by SDS-PAGE to separate by molecular weight. The document describes the principles, methods, applications and references for 2D electrophoresis.
Protein Data Bank
The Protein Data Bank (PDB) is the single worldwide database that stores the 3D structural data of large biological molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids. It contains data submitted by researchers from around the world. The PDB is operated by three member organizations and uses standardized file formats like PDB, mmCIF, and PDBML to store and represent structural data. Secondary databases categorize the PDB data in different ways, such as by structure, function, or evolutionary relationships. Visualization programs can be used to view PDB file contents. PDBWiki allows collaborative discussion and annotation of PDB structures, complementing the PDB's role as a primary data archive.
Protein folding
Proteins fold into complex 3D structures essential for their function. There are four levels of protein structure - primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. Chaperone proteins help other proteins fold correctly to prevent aggregation. Misfolded proteins can result from changes in temperature, pH, or lack of chaperones and may lead to disease if not degraded. Normally, misfolded proteins are targeted for degradation by the ubiquitin proteasome pathway, but accumulation of misfolded proteins can cause conditions like Alzheimer's disease.
Kegg
The document describes several key databases within the KEGG resource, including:
- The PATHWAY database containing molecular network maps of metabolic and genetic pathways.
- The BRITE database providing hierarchical classifications of biological systems beyond what is shown in pathways.
- The LIGAND database consisting of chemical compounds, carbohydrates, reactions, and enzyme information.
KEGG aims to comprehensively capture biological knowledge through integrated databases covering genomes, pathways, diseases and drugs.

Protein Sequencing Strategies
Frederick Sanger developed two important methods for protein sequencing: 1) using fluorodinitrobenzene to determine the N-terminal amino acid, and 2) cleaving proteins into fragments and piecing their sequences together. The standard strategy involves separating chains, identifying terminal residues, cleaving the protein, sequencing fragments, and reconstructing the full sequence. The Edman degradation method allows sequential removal of residues from the N-terminus. Mass spectrometry techniques like peptide mass fingerprinting and tandem mass spectrometry now dominate protein sequencing.
Genome annotation
After sequencing of the genome has been done, the first thing that comes to mind is "Where are the genes?". Genome annotation is the process of attaching information to the biological sequences. It is an active area of research and it would help scientists a lot to undergo with their wet lab projects once they know the coding parts of a genome.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

Pharmacology of Drugs for Congestive Heart Failure
Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.
