Fractal Symmetry of Protein Interior

The essential question that fractal dimensions attempt to answer is about the scales in Nature. For a system as non-idealistic and complex as a protein, studying scale-invariance becomes particularly important. Fractal Symmetry of Protein Interior investigates the diverse facets of the various scale...
