On the average, 30% of the residues in a protein are members of peptidic palindromes, tripeptidic and longer. This percentage may go up to 50% in histones and certain other DNA binding proteins. The longest peptidic palindrome encountered thus far was 14 residues in length. However, there is every reason to expect even longer peptidic palindromes in other proteins not yet analyzed.
平均而言，蛋白质中30%的残基是肽类回文序列的成员，包括三肽及更长的序列。在组蛋白和某些其他DNA结合蛋白中，这一比例可能高达50%。迄今为止发现的最长的肽类回文序列长度为14个残基。然而，完全有理由预计在尚未分析的其他蛋白质中会存在更长的肽类回文序列。
