Year: 2016
Type: article
Abstract: AIM OF STUDY: The aim was to explore the structure and functions of new target spot c-Myc target from laryngeal cancer cell. (MTLC) of c-Myc gene. METHODS: This study adopted bioinformatic methods to analyze the physicochemical property, secondary structure, hydrophobic region, a transmembrane region, and prediction of functions. RESULTS: The results showed that the whole length of the open reading frames was 708 bp, coding was 235 amino acids. This protein was a basic protein possessed two transmembrane structures and weight was about 26592.5 Da. The main elements of secondary structure were alpha-helix and random coil. MTLC was a membrane constitutive protein that possessed signal transduction and regulation may locate on karyotheca as results of subcellular localization and function prediction. CONCLUSION: This study has provided the theoretical basis for the further discussion of the effect and mechanism of action of MTLC in the occurrence of laryngeal cancer.
