The surface area of monomeric proteins: significance of power law behavior.
The coefficients in a power law fit of accessible area versus molecular weight for high-resolution monomeric protein structures are assessed with respect to statistical accuracy using bootstrap analyses, and with respect to physical significance using model systems and the concept of roughness or fractal structure of the protein surface.
