Scanning a sequence by hydrophobicity does not reveal transmembrane β-strands.(a) True(b) FalseI got this question during an interview for a job.My query is from Secondary Structure Prediction for Transmembrane Proteins topic in chapter Secondary Structure Prediction of Bioinformatics

Answer»

The correct option is (a) True

The best EXPLANATION: These programs for predicting transmembrane α-helices are not applicable for this UNIQUE type of membrane PROTEINS. To predict the β-barrel type of membrane proteins, a small number of algorithms have been made available based on NEURAL networks and related techniques.
