Abstract: | On the basis of recent basic developments in protein structure, a proteomic code is suggested, which would potentially allow the sequence, structure, and function of proteins to be described by a spectrum of elementary loop-n-lock units. All major characteristics of the nearly standard units are described, and the first five codons of the proteomic code are presented with their respective unique sequences, structures, and functions. More such codons are to be discovered, and the general procedure for their identification is described. |
