Abstract
⺠De novo emergence of proteins is modeled using translated random DNA sequences. ⺠Aggregation, disorder and transmembrane propensities estimated with consensus methods. ⺠GC-content of underlying DNA governs structural preferences of random proteins. ⺠Extant proteins have more transmembrane segments than random ones. ⺠Disorder and aggregation of random proteins is in the range observed for extant ones.
