(1) Several of these proteins however share significant homology with proteins from other vertebrate species.(2) They show a remarkable structural similarity and extensive sequence homologies at the amino acid level.(3) Secondary structure may reveal homologies between distantly related proteins even when DNA sequence comparisons cannot.(4) This database is useful for identifying meaningful homologies among proteins with poor overall sequence similarity.(5) Significant sequence homologies to known proteins were noted.(6) These hypothetical proteins have strong, negative charges and share no functional homologies with any known protein sequences.
