Structure and distribution of modules in extracellular proteins
Abstract
It has become standard practice to compare new amino-acid and nucleotide sequences with existing ones in the rapidly growing sequence databases. This has led to the recurring identification of certain sequence patterns, usually corresponding to less than 300 amino-acids in length. Many of these identifiable sequence regions have been shown to fold up to form a ‘domain’ structure; they are often called protein ‘modules’ (see definitions below). Proteins that contain such modules are widely distributed in biology, but they are particularly common in extracellular proteins.

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.
