Figure 3

Colour-coded sequence for the folded SASA of [PDB:5cro], calculated with ProtSA. The specific degree of burial in the folded state of a given residue type varies widely. Tyr 26 is clearly more exposed than the average tyrosine residues present in the test set of 11 proteins (see text), which could be suggestive of a possible 'reverse hydrophobic effect'. This effect can be discarded by inspection of figure 4a. The data shown is for 1.4 Å of solvent radius and 2000 conformations. Tyr 26 is labelled.
