Protein structural classes in five complete genomes

Nature Structural Biology volume 4, pages 626–628 (1997)Cite this article

The predicted distribution of globular proteins over folding types in five complete genomes differs from the tendencies observed in known protein structures. The ratio between the number of predicted membrane and globular proteins is conserved.
