Insights into protease sequence similarities by comparing substrate sequences and phylogenetic dynamics

Based on substrate sequences, we proposed a novel method for comparing sequence similarities among 68 proteases compiled from the MEROPS online database. The rank vector was defined based on the frequencies of amino acids at each site of the substrate, aiming to eliminate the different order varianc...
