Repeat Amino Acid Sequences in Proteins

<p>Repeat amino acid sequences are important in protein structure disorder function and evolution. Repeats of some amino acids exist in proteomes across species.</p><p>This volume highlights:</p><ul> <li>Which repeat sequences have pathogenic consequences and why?</li> <li>Repeats which lead to surface hydrophobic clusters and their importance</li> <li>Role of aromatic amino acid clusters in protein‐protein and protein‐drug interactions</li> <li>Cell‐penetrating peptides and Elastin‐like peptides</li> <li>Unusual phenomenon of fluorescence observed with repeats of some non‐aromatic amino acids</li> <li>The use of residue cluster classes to represent protein structure and model structure‐function relationships.</li> </ul>
