Oligopeptide biases in protein sequences and their use in predicting protein coding regions in nucleotide sequences
Abstract
We have examined oligopeptides with lengths ranging from 2 to 11 residues in protein sequences that show no obvious evolutionary relationship. All sequences in the Protein Identification Resource database were carefully classified by sensitive homology searches into superfamilies to obtain unbiased oligopeptide counts. The results, contrary to previous studies, show clear prejudices in protein sequences. The oligopeptide preferences were used to help decide the significance of sequence homologies and to improve the more general methods for detecting protein coding regions within nucleotide sequences.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
