We have implemented several algorithms, developed by various authors for predicting structural features of proteins from their primary structure, on an Apple IIe and collected them in a suite, named PROTEUS. This suite incorporates: (i) methods for predicting secondary structure; (ii) the algorithm for computing the hydropathy profile using one out of five available sets of parameters; (iii) the algorithms for calculating the hydrophobic moment plot; and (iv) for performing the amphipathic analysis using one out of four available sets of parameters. The suite has a utility program for storing on a disk the sequence to be analysed. As an example, we applied some of the methods included in PROTEUS to predict the structure of a mitochondrial leader peptide. The results suggest the occurrence of structural features possibly related to the import of proteins into mitochondria. |
