Maybe imotif acts similarly to proteins.
- lokopodium 8y agoProteins vary wildly in structure, size and chemistry, these things seem to be rather similar so far chemically "boring".
- dosycorp 8y agoHa. Short strings of DNA, "chemically boring". Nothing to see here. Probably just junk.
- lokopodium 8y agoCompared to proteins (20+ amino acids, inclusions of non-aminoacid structures such as heme), yes, quite boring.
- pazimzadeh 8y agoMaybe proteins exist with binding pockets that recognize both the secondary and primary structure of imotifs. primary structure = linear sequence of DNA letters secondary structure = DNA folding in on itself, like proteins
