Protein secondary structure prediction by the analysis of variation and conservation in multiple alignments.

Abstract excerpt

A number of methods exist for the prediction of protein secondary structure from primary sequence. One method identifies variable charged and conserved hydrophobic residues within large multiple alignments as a means of indicating outside and inside sites respectively in the protein structure. These sites are then manually fitted to secondary structure templates to generate a secondary structure prediction. Using...
