This paper addresses three major objectives: (i) to determine whether the resolution of typical air photo-derived forest inventory is sufficient for the accurate prediction of site occupancy by forest birds.
BioSTAR is a new crop model which was originally developed for the prediction of site-specific biomass potentials for bioenergy crops, mainly maize and cereals for silage.
If the appropriate training set and biotransformation fragments will be available, the program can be extended to prediction of sites for other biotransformation.
The prediction of sites and products of metabolism for xenobiotic and endogenous compounds is an important avenue of research, playing an influential role in the development and use of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, nutritional supplements and agrochemicals.
The prediction of sites and products of metabolism in xenobiotic compounds is key to the development of new chemical entities, where screening potential metabolites for toxicity or unwanted side-effects is of crucial importance.
Based on these rules hitherto uncovered, we developed a model allowing the prediction of sites more prone to carbonylation and hence of proteins more prone to carbonylation via direct MCO attack.
We used these rules to design an in silico model (available at http://www.lcb.cnrs-mrs.fr/CSPD/), allowing an effective and accurate prediction of sites and of proteins more prone to carbonylation in the E. coli proteome.
Sequence analysis of the proximal RKPT-enriched regions, which were experimentally determined to be carbonylated in E. coli, allowed us to define additional rules for the prediction of sites and proteins more prone to carbonylation.
However, prediction of site-specific metastasis remains poor [ 36].
Such data enable the prediction of sites whose mutation may lead to significant preferences for one substrate over another.
