The fraction of native contacts reproduced in a particular structure is often used as a reaction coordinate for measuring the deviation from the native state of structures produced during molecular dynamics simulations or in benchmarks of protein structure prediction methods. The contact order is a measure of the locality of a protein s native contacts that is, the sequence distance between amino acids that form contacts.

    In electronics , a native transistor or sometimes natural transistor is a variety of the MOSFET MOS field effect transistor that is intermediate between MOSFET Modes of operation enhancement and depletion modes . Most common is the n channel native transistor. Historically, native transistors were referred to as MOSFET s without specially grown oxide, only natural thin oxide film formed over silicon during processing of other layers. Fact date December 2008 A native MOSFET is a transistor with nearly zero Threshold voltage . Native n channel transistors have a niche applications in low voltage operational amplifier s and in low voltage digital memory, where it functions as the weak pull down. It also used in low voltage interface circuits. The main disadvantages of the native transistors is the larger size due to additional doping mask, and sometimes lower transconductance . Typical minimal size of the native N channel MOSFET NMOS gate is 2 3 times longer and wider than standard Threshold voltage transistor. The cost of chips including native transistors is also increased because of the additional doping operations.
