AbstractProteins are very large biological molecules synthesized in living organisms by linking hundreds or even thousands of amino acids to form a linear chain. Proteins are required for life and they are thus important targets for fundamental and biomedical research, including drug development, and biotechnology. Enzymes catalyzing biochemical reactions, protein drugs such as insulin, and antibodies conveying immunity are well-known examples. Importantly, the biological function of proteins is intimat
