Helix length and confidence. Secondary structure predictions for p2 with susceptibility and resistance to BVM. A: For all p2 sequences the secondary structure was predicted by JPred [43] and then for each sequence position the helix probability (fraction of helix at this position) was computed separately for the susceptible and resistant sequences. B: Histograms of the confidence with which JPred predicts a helix (0 lowest, 9 highest). The confidence values were averaged for each sequence over all positions predicted to be helical.
