Title: Study on hydropathy profile alignment of transmembrane protein based on dynamic programming
Abstract:The results show that the hydropathy profile distance can reflect the homology of proteins better than the sequence identity or the sequence similarity which is obtained from the sequence alignment wh...The results show that the hydropathy profile distance can reflect the homology of proteins better than the sequence identity or the sequence similarity which is obtained from the sequence alignment when sequences in the family is very divergent. In addition, homologous proteins have higher hydropathy profile similarity in transmembrane regions than in non-transmembrane regions, which suggests that the structure of transmembrane regions are much better conserved thant the non-transmembrane regions during evolution.Read More
