SSS-determining residues for the SSS shown in Fig. 1A

Column “Strand,” SSS-determining residues for the given strand; column “Loop,” SSS-determining residues for the loop between strands.

The residues at lines a1 are obtained from the alignment of the learning set of sequences. The augmented sets of the SSS-determining residues are shown at lines a2. The expressions X and 3X show that the distances between 2 consecutive conserved positions are always the same in all proteins with the same SSS (e.g., 1 residue, 2 residues). The expression ″(d,r)″ X indicates that the minimum number of residues between 2 consecutive conserved positions is ″d″ residues and the maximum number of residues between 2 consecutive conserved positions is ″r″ residues.
