Network properties of protein structures

Abstract

Protein structures can be studied as complex networks of interacting amino acids. We study proteins of different structural classes from the network perspective. Our results indicate that proteins, regardless of their structural class, show small-world network property. Various network parameters offer insight into the structural organisation of proteins and provide indications of modularity in protein networks.
