Comparative Analysis of Barophily-Related Amino Acid Content in Protein Domains of Pyrococcus abyssi and Pyrococcus furiosus

Table 2

Barophily rank (BR) and preference of the barophilic (B) and non-barophilic amino acids (N). Bold font identifies amino acids that have most consistent and significant preference that is congruent with their barophily or non-barophily group.
