posted on 2010-08-11, 02:03 authored by Prasad V. Burra, Lajos Kalmar, Peter Tompa(A) The size of proteome (actually the number of annotated genes in the genome) is shown as a function of average predicted disorder of proteins in prokaryotes with known status of thermal adaptation. Particular groups are also shown highlighted, such as hyperthermophiles (B), Actinobacteria (C) and halophiles (D).
