An analysis of the amino- and carboxy-terminal regions and of loops that connect the putative TM helices did not reveal any obvious domains.
To find correlation between the three classes of tripeptides and known secondary structure subsequences, 9986 helices of sequence length ≥ 5, 4541 helices of sequence length ≥ 12, 9544 beta strands of length ≥ 3 and 3120 beta strands of length ≥ 7 from DSMP [ 21 ] were analyzed and the results are tabulated in Table 5. The distribution of the three classes of tripeptides in these secondary structure elements mirrors their distribution in the entire dataset, occurrence being predominantly intermediate followed by rigid and non-rigid.
The putative EF-hand loop of AtPLC1 lies between two of the a helices.
Perhaps it reflects especially tight packing among helices in transporters, permitting the Cα-H.
Although no single amino acid is absolutely invariant in all TPRs, they do contain a largely conserved pattern of amino acid similarity in terms of size, hydrophobicity, and spacing [ 8 9 ] . Eight amino acid residues are critically placed on the same face of their respective helices: 4, 8, and 11 on the first helix, and 20, 24, and 27 on the second [ 8 9 ] . As shown in Fig.
