Quantitative Characteristics of Primary Amino Acid Sequences Predict 'Fractal' Measures on Tertiary Structures of Proteins.

Abstract

The quantitative prediction of the tertiary structure of proteins as defined by their x-ray crystallographic coordinates using statistical physical and/or symbolic characteristics of the primary amino acid sequence is a long standing problem in biopolymer physics.
