We suspect that there is a level of granularity of protein structure intermediate between the classical levels of "architecture" and "topology," as reflected in such phenomena as extensive three-dimensional structural similarity above the level of (super)folds. Here, we examine this notion of architectural identity despite topological variability, starting with a concept that we call the "Urfold." We believe that this model could offer a new conceptual approach for protein structural analysis an ...[more]
