Background: Pattern is a set of amino acids forms a unit that governs protein structure and activity. So many developments have been made in retrieving these patterns using computational approach. From our recent findings it was concluded that carbon plays an important role in structure formation and binding. Method: Carbon distribution studies on these patterns are carried out using CARd program. The CARd outputs are plotted for comparison and discussed. Conclusion: The results reveal that carbon plays an important role in pattern formation. Carbon distribution based patterns account better over the amino acid patterns. That is different amino acid sequences are grouped as same pattern but in carbon distribution. In fact it is hoped for the refinement of pattern databases.
