PAPER 3 - Programming



1a. Intra Molecular Distance Matrix calculation (50 marks) : ATOM lines (155) of a pdb file are provided in input file (only C@ residues). Calculate intra molecular distance between each C@ residue. If distance >= 6, print 1 in distance matrix of output file, else print 0 in distance matrix. Comment on the secondary structures present.

1b. Chou fasman prediction (50 marks) : Amino acid sequence (50 residues) is provided in input file. Extract it. Make octamers of amino acids from the file and calculate their alpha and beta propensity by using second input file. Eg. - 1-8, 2-9, 3-10,....till 50. Second input file contains 20 amino acids with their alpha and beta propensity values in 3 columns. Parse through it using array or store it in a hash. Print the resultant alpha, beta propensity scores for each octamer in output file.

OR

2a. Distance calculation (60 marks) : ATOM lines of a pdb file are provided in input file. Calculate distance between backbone amino acid and side chains. Many other questions were also there.

2b. Gene silencing (40 marks) : mRNA sequence is provided in first input file. miRNA sequences(3) are provided in second input file. Find when gene silencing will occur.
