Functional determinants of protein assembly into homomeric complexes
Abstract Approximately half of proteins with experimentally determined structures can interact with other copies of themselves and assemble into homomeric complexes, the overwhelming majority of which (>96%) are symmetric. Although homomerisation is often assumed to a functionally beneficial resu...
