Abstract: Based on three physicochemical properties of amino acid side chains, we proposed a novel unique 3D graphical representation of protein sequences. Then, we constructed two vectors of three components as mathematical objects to characterize protein sequences numerically. The similarity/dissimilarity analysis among nine ND5 protein sequences proved the utility of our approach. A correlation and significance analysis have been provided to compare our results and the sequence homology.
