Topology of protein structure (TOPS) cartoons are simplified descriptions of structural topology of proteins in 2D. This is coarse level description of protein structure. The comparison of protein structures is very important for the study of protein functions, and for the analysis of possible evolutionary relationships. In this paper, we use LZ algorithm to compare TOPS strings.
