| Abstract | The amino acid sequences of soluble, ordered proteins with stable structures have evolved due to biological and physical requirements, thus distinguishing them from random sequences. Previous analyses have focused on extracting the features that frequently appear in protein substructures, such as -helix and ß-sheet, but the universal features of protein sequences have not been addressed. To clarify the differences between native protein sequences and random sequences, we analyzed 7368 soluble, ordered protein sequences, by inspecting the observed and expected occurrences of 400 amino acid pairs in local proximity, up to 10 residues along the sequence in comparison with their expected occurrence in random sequence. We found the trend that the hydrophobic residue pairs and the polar residue pairs are significantly decreased, whereas the pairs between a hydrophobic residue and a polar residue are increased. This trend was universally observed regardless of the secondary structure content but was not observed in protein sequences that include intrinsically disordered regions, indicating that it can be a general rule of protein foldability. The possible benefits of this rule are discussed from the viewpoints of protein aggregation and disorder, which are both caused by low-complexity regions of hydrophobic or polar residues. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
