Abstract
This unit describes procedures developed for predicting protein structure from the amino acid sequence. The first of the four sections is an overview and brief history of structure prediction schemes. The second section describes four distinct prediction schemes, with emphasis on their differences. In the third part each prediction scheme is used to evaluate three proteins that have different folding patterns. The final section is a comparison of the prediction results and suggestions for secondary structure prediction.

Figure 2.3.1 Helical wheel for a portion of the amphipathic helix of melittin. Residues in bold type form a hydrophobic side. Note that this is not a perfect amphipathic helix as the polar face includes Ala‐4, Ala‐15, and Val‐8. This helix also contains several glycine residues, which are not commonly found in helices (Table ). View Image -
