The Genetic Control of Tertiary Protein Structure: Studies With Model Systems
Abstract
At the present time it is generally assumed that most, if not all, proteins possess well-defined structures. This assumption is based on several kinds of evidence: (1) the finding that many proteins have unique amino acid sequences, with specific intrachain disulfide bonds; (2) the ability to determine the three-dimensional configuration (tertiary structure) and, in some instances, even portions of the amino acid sequence of proteins such as myoglobin and hemoglobin by X-ray crystallographic methods; (3) the highly reproducible physical-chemical properties of a large number of proteins; and (4) the great degree of configurational specificity which appears necessary for enzymic activity. When one considers the complexity of the tertiary structure of a “native” protein, it seems reasonable to inquire into how a newly-made protein arrives at its three-dimensional configuration.

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.
