Protein dataset

Description

This real data set consists of a dissimilarity matrix derived from the structural comparison of 213 protein sequences. Each of these proteins is known to belong to one of four classes of globins: hemoglobin-alpha (HA), hemoglobin-beta (HB), myoglobin (M) and heterogeneous globins (G).

Usage

data(protein)

Format

A list with three elements:

D

The 213x213 dissimilarity matrix.

class

A 213-vector containing the class encoded a a factor with four levels: "G", "HA", "HB", "M".

y

A 213-vector containing the class encoded by an integer between 1 and 4.
