Figure 1

Loop, surface and interface size distributions for disulphide-bonded loop containing proteins. This study examined a total of 2,380 3D loop structures from 759 unique proteins in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), along with 8,607 annotated disulphide-bonded loop sequences from 5,989 Uniprot protein entries. (a) Shows the loop size distribution of disulphide bonded loops in PDB structures. (b) Shows the distribution of the number of surface residues possessed by each PDB-derived disulphide-bonded loop (c) shows the distribution of the number of residues in each PDB-derived disulphide loop that are involved in a protein-protein contact. (d) Shows the size distribution of short disulphide-bonded loops annotated in Uniprot.
