Scleroprotein - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Scleroproteins are one of the two main classes of protein Quaternary structure (the other being globular proteins). They are also called fibrous proteins. They form long protein filaments, rod- or wi...

The tertiary structure of globular proteins reflects their interaction with their aqueous solvent. At a simple level, a globular protein may be considered to consist of a hydrophobic core surrounded by a hydrophilic external surface which interacts with water.

Globular proteins are more likely to crystallize than membrane proteins, or fibrous proteins. As a result, the great majority of solved structures are globular.

Other common helical conformations are 310 and 4.416. The alpha helix is the most stable of these, accounting for a third of the secondary structure found in most globular (non-fibrous) proteins.
