CARd-3D: Carbon Distribution in 3D Structure Program for Globular Proteins.

Spatial arrangement of carbon in protein structure is analyzed here. Particularly, the carbon fractions around individual atoms are compared. It is hoped that it follows the principle of 31.

Carbon distribution to toxic effect in toxin proteins.

The role of hydrophobic force in biological function through the formation of several local macro-molecular structures is evident. Carbon is the element that contributes to biological function in living systems. We show that carbon distribution is related to protein activity using an example.

Allotment of carbon is responsible for disorders in proteins.

Sequence stretches in proteins that do not fold into a form are referred as disordered regions. Databases like Disport describe disordered regions in proteins and web servers like PrDOS and DisEMBL, facilitate the prediction of disordered regions. These studies are often based on residue level features.
