摘要
Objective:To analyze the amino acid sequence composition,secondary structure,the spatial conformation of its domain and other characteristics of Argonaute protein.Methods:Bioinformatics tools and the internet server were used.Firstly,the amino acid sequence composition features of the Argonaute protein were analyzed,and the phylogenetic tree was constructed.Secondly,Argonaute protein's distribution of secondary structure and its physicochemical properties were predicted.Lastly,the protein functional expression form of the domain group was established through the Phyre-based analysis on the spatial conformation of Argonaute protein domains.Results:593 amino acids were encoded by Argonaute protein,the phylogenetic tree was constructed,and Argonaute protein's distribution of secondary structure and its physicochemical properties were obtained through analysis.In addition,the functional expression form which comprised the N-terminal PAZ domain and C-terminal Piwi domain for the Argonaute protein was obtained with Phyre.Conclusions:The information relationship between the structure and function of the Argonaute protein can be initially established with bioinformatics tools and the internet server,and this provides the theoretical basis for further clarifying the function of Schistosoma Argonaute protein.
