Abstract

The specific characteristics of the distribution of secondary structures and coiled-coil superhelix structures were investigated for the first time, while taking the sign of chirality into account, in polypeptide chains of proteins belonging to eight functional classes: viral proteins, chaperones, oxidoreductases, hydrolases, structural proteins, proteins involved in exocytosis and endocytosis, and electron-transport proteins. The patterns of protein structure that are common for all studied classes and those typical for each class are described.
