Detailed Description
The geometrical objects coded in ProFASi are those which recur frequently in protein structures. Bonds connect atoms, and atoms can be thought of as junctions of bonds. These junctions could have 4 or 3 legs, the legs could be symmetrically or asymmetrically placed and so on. But the total number of essentially different geometrical constructs needed to put together a protein chain is relatively small.
