A geometrical framework for thinking about proteins
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2023 Abstract We present a model, based on symmetry and geometry, for proteins. Using elementary ideas from mathematics and physics, we derive the geometries of discrete helices and sheets. We postulate a compatible solvent‐mediated emergent pairwise attraction that assembles these building blocks, while respecting their individual ...
