title: Protein signatures--a novel way to classify proteins.
abstract: A method is developed to classify proteins by establishing their familial identity based on the presence and the absence of characteristic signature dipeptides. It is hoped that this method will lead to the establishment of a theoretical basis for the determination of interrelationships among proteins.
