Bologna Biocomputing Group Predictions

SPEPLIP
A signal peptide is predicted in 204 proteins

CYSPRED
The bonding state of Cysteines has been predicted after removing the signal peptide predicted with SPEPLIP

No. of Bonded Cys 1940 in 205 proteins
No. of FreeCys 7749 in 923 proteins

No. of proteins with both Free and Bonded Cys: 108

TRANSMEBRANE HELICES
Predictions were made after removing the signal peptide.

ENSEMBLE predicted transmembrane helices in 275 proteins (84 have also a Signal Pep, 71 have at least two Bonded Cys)
MEMSAT predicted transmembrane helices in 395 proteins (96 have also a Signal Pep, 107 have at least two Bonded Cys)
TMHMM predicted transmembrane helices in 247 proteins (74 have also a Signal Pep, 60 have at least two Bonded Cys )
TMHMMdomfix predicted transmembrane helices in 264 proteins (74 have also a Signal Pep, 63 have at least two Bonded Cys)
PRODIV predicted transmembrane helices in 254 proteins (75 have also a Signal Pep, 65 have at least two Bonded Cys)

The union of these sets gives 424 proteins
The Intersection gives 218 proteins

7 proteins are predicted as transmembrane by ENSEMBLE alone
115 proteins are predicted as transmembrane by MEMSAT alone
0 proteins are predicted as transmembrane by TMHMM alone
11 proteins are predicted as transmembrane by TMHMMdomfix alone
0 proteins are predicted as transmembrane by PRODIV alone

GENE VARIANTS
The 1097 proteins come from 434 genes.
252 genes are listed with variants (from 2 up to 17)

Analysing the ENSEMBLE results:
76 of these 252 genes have a TM-helix in at least one variant
58 of these genes are predicted with a different number of TMHs in different variants
32 of these are predicted or not as Transmembrane depending on the variant

Analysing the MEMSAT results:
122 of these 252 genes have a TM-helix in at least one variant
84 of these genes are predicted with a different number of TMHs in different variants
63 of these are predicted or not as Transmembrane depending on the variant

Analysing the TMHMM results:
64 of these 252 genes have a TM-helix in at least one variant
43 of these genes are predicted with a different number of TMHs in different variants
25 of these are predicted or not as Transmembrane depending on the variant

Analysing the TMHMMdomfix results:
73 of these 252 genes have a TM-helix in at least one variant
51 of these genes are predicted with a different number of TMHs in different variants
33 of these are predicted or not as Transmembrane depending on the variant

Analysing the PRODIV results:
70 of these 252 genes have a TM-helix in at least one variant
51 of these genes are predicted with a different number of TMHs in different variants
31 of these are predicted or not as Transmembrane depending on the variant
