Amino acid repeats avert mRNA folding through conservative substitutions and synonymous codons, regardless of codon bias
A significant number of proteins in all living species contains amino acid repeats (AARs) of various lengths and compositions, many of which play important roles in protein structure and function. Here, I have surveyed select homopolymeric single [(A)n] and double [(AB)n] AARs in the human proteome....
