The Pattern of Amino Acid Replacements in α/β-Barrels

Abstract

The determinants of site-to-site variability in the rate of amino acid replacement in alpha/beta-barrel enzyme structures are investigated. Of 125 available alpha/beta-barrel structures, only 25 meet a variety of phylogenetic and statistical criteria necessary to ensure sufficient data for reliable analysis. These 25 enzyme structures (from a wide variety of taxa with diverse lifestyles in diverse habitats) differ greatly in size, number, and …
