3. Note of Acknowledgement
The project would have been incomplete without the help of a number of persons. First I
would like to thank my mentor and guide Prof. Chanchal K. Das Gupta who gave me the
idea and inspiration to do the project and helped me in every step whenever I was in
trouble. I would like to thank Prof. Punyasloke Bhadury who helped me by introducing to
NCBI website and showing me to perform tasks like alignment, BLAST in internet.
I cannot repay the sin if I don’t mention the names of my superiors Papri di, Amit da and
Shimonti di who also helped me with the project.
I have in my work, extensively used the websites- NCBI and Uniprot.
4. Bioinformatics is the application of statistics and computer science to the field
of molecular biology.
The term bioinformatics was coined by Paulien Hogeweg in 1979 for the study of
informatic processes in biotic systems. Its primary use since at least the late 1980s has
been in genomics and genetics, particularly in those areas of genomics involving large-
scale DNA sequencing.
Bioinformatics now entails the creation and advancement of databases, algorithms,
computational and statistical techniques and theory to solve formal and practical
problems arising from the management and analysis of biological data.
Over the past few decades rapid developments in genomic and other molecular
research technologies and developments in information technologies have combined to
produce a tremendous amount of information related to molecular biology. It is the
name given to these mathematical and computing approaches used to glean
understanding of biological processes.
Common activities in bioinformatics include mapping and analyzing DNA and protein
sequences, aligning different DNA and protein sequences to compare them and
creating and viewing 3-D models of protein structures.
The primary goal of bioinformatics is to increase the understanding of biological
processes. What sets it apart from other approaches, however, is its focus on
developing and applying computationally intensive techniques (e.g., pattern
recognition, data mining, machine learning algorithms, and visualization) to achieve this
goal. Major research efforts in the field include sequence alignment, gene
finding, genome assembly, drug design, drug discovery, protein structure
alignment, protein structure prediction, prediction of gene expression and protein-
protein interactions, genome-wide association studies and the modeling of evolution.
5. GC-content (or guanine-cytosine content), in molecular biology, is the percentage
of nitrogenous bases on a molecule which are either guanine or cytosine (from a
possibility of four different ones, also including adenine and thymine). This may refer to
a specific fragment of DNA or RNA, or that of the whole genome. When it refers to a
fragment of the genetic material, it may denote the GC-content of part of a gene
(domain), single gene, group of genes (or gene clusters) or even a non-coding region. G
(guanine) and C (cytosine) undergo a specific hydrogen bonding whereas A (adenine)
bonds specifically with T (thymine).
The GC pair is bound by three hydrogen bonds, while AT pairs are bound by two
hydrogen bonds. DNA with high GC-content is more stable than DNA with low GC-
content, but contrary to popular belief, the hydrogen bonds do not stabilize the DNA
significantly and stabilization is mainly due to stacking interactions. In spite of the
higher conferred to the genetic material, it is envisaged that cells with DNA with high
GC-content undergo autolysis, thereby reducing the longevity of the cell per se. Due to
the robustness endowed to the genetic materials in high GC organisms it was
commonly believed that the GC content played a vital part in adaptation temperatures, a
hypothesis which has recently been refuted.
In PCR experiments, the GC-content of primers are used to predict their annealing
temperature to the template DNA. A higher GC-content level indicates a higher melting
temperature.
6. THE EVOLUTION TREE IN BACTERIA WHERE IS G-C CONTENT STUDY IS AN
ANALYTICAL TOOL.
The guanine plus cytosine (GC) content in bacteria ranges from ~20% to 75% where as
we will see in a later lecture that eukaryotic genomes have GC contents that often have
a restricted range from ~35-50% (about 40%-45% in vertebrates).
9. For our convenience, we chose Carbonic Anhydrase because it is present in all bacteria
across the G-C content spectrum of Bacterias-
The carbonic anhydrases (or carbonate dehydratases) form a family of enzymes that
catalyze the rapid conversion of carbon dioxide and water to bicarbonate and protons, a
reaction that occurs rather slowly in the absence of a catalyst.[1] The active site of most
carbonic anhydrases contains a zinc ion; they are therefore classified
as metalloenzymes.
THE CARBONIC ANHYDRASE PROTEIN-
10. In our analysis, we choose the following bacteria-
1) Methaococcus voltae A3 (UI-A8TF20) (G-Cc=27%)
2) Staphylococcus carnosus (UI-B9DMU8_STACT) (G-Cc=34%)
3) Vibrio cholera (UI-Q9KMP6_VIBCH) (G-Cc=47%)
4) Escherichia coli (UI-P61517) (G-Cc=50%%)
5) Truepera radiovictrix DSM1703 (UI-ADI14363) (G-Cc=68.2%)
6) Salinispora arenicola (UI-A8MOD8) (G-Cc=69.2%%)
7) Frankia CcI (UI-Q2JF50) (G-Cc=71%)
*UI stands for the Uniprot Accession number of the Carbonic Anhydrase protein
of the respective bacteria.
We begin analyzing the protein Carbonic Anhydrase from these bacteria-

We have 3 protein sequences for E coli and 2 sequences each for Salinispora and
Frankia. We now compare them amongst themselves.
For E coli-
The sequence marked Escherishsia is the 1st sequence.
The sequence Ecoli is the 2nd sequence.
The sequence Final is the 3rd sequence.
13. For Salinispora-
. :
For Frankia-
After viewing the alignment of the suspected Carbonic Anhydrase within the same
species, we wish to align the proteins from all the sources, all proteins from same
species is also incorporated.
15. Analysis- we can see two things from the above.
1) Bacteria with high G-C have two genes for Carbonic Anhydrase and
consequently 2 proteins suspected to be Carbonic Anhydrase.
2) Bacteria with high G-C incorporate synonymous amino acid which requires G-C
rich codons to compensate in their protons.
We will elaborate on the 2nd point later using Codon-plot. We can show that the
corresponding codon of the DNA of Carbonic Anhydrase gene of this bacteria.
Now we move to analyzing the DNA of the genes of Carbonic Anhydrase-
The DNA sequences are as follows-

44. From the above list, we conclude two things-
1) The codon-plot of the different gene o.r.f.s from the same organism are the same
except at some minor points.
2) The codon-plot of the organisms only confirm our suspicion while analyzing the
peptide sequences that choice of codons is different to suit the G-C content of
the organism.
45. Corrections-
We undertake this because we noticed that gene products of Methanococcus voltae and
Frankia were not starting with amino-acid Methionine.
Methanococcus voltae corrections-
The mistake seems to be in the database from where sequence has been downloaded. The DNA seq.
had ‘ata’ instead of ‘atg’.
Frankia sp CcI3 corrections-
The mistake seems to have been in the sequence again. The DNA seq. began 27 bp before and the
claimed starting site of the protein actually coded for Valine.
46. Conclusion:
After studying the three analysis we did with the protein, DNA and the ORF codons,we
conclude the following-
1) Bacteria choose codons based on its G-C composition to get same amino acid
for creation of protein. G-C rich codon of course gets preference for G-C rich
bacteria. Similarly and conversely, A-T rich codon gets preference for G-C poor
bacteria.
2) If same amino acid is not there, a synonymous amino acid is used having the
same or near about same chemical properties.
3) High G-C content bacteria often employ two different genes for same purpose.
The finding of two possible genes in their genome for Carbonic Anhydrase is the
proof for such a statement.
4) Most bacteria use Zinc at the metal site yet a small number of bacteria use
Cadmium and other metals.
5) Even if they are of varied length, one may look for Serine and Glycine on the
peptide chain and see that this region is conserved in all protein,. This is because
the protein domains must be similar for all the anhydrases.
