Abstract

A new, simple method for predicting transmembrane segments in integral membrane proteins has been developed. It is based on low-stringency dot-plots of the query sequence against a collection of non-homologous membrane proteins using a previously derived scoring matrix [Cserzö et al., 1994, J. Mol. ...
