Descriptor subunidades de proteínas
Entry term(s) protómeros
Scope note: Cadenas simples de aminoácidos que son las unidades de PROTEÍNAS multiméricas. Estas pueden estar compuestas por subunidades idénticas o no. Una o más subunidades monoméricas pueden componer un protómero, que a su vez es una subunidad de un conjunto más amplio.
