They looked at the Pfam database, a repository of the amino-acid sequences of 260, 000 protein domains, to find out how easily, using the 30% figure as a guide, these could be clustered into groups that were single units from an analytical standpoint.
To investigate whether acid reflux is involved at all, doctors can do a 24-hour pH test, inserting an acid-sensitive probe through the patient's nose into the esophagus, where it records any episodes of reflux.
