Table 6 The available predictors, used for predicting the transmembrane strands of β-barrel outer membrane proteins.

From: Evaluation of methods for predicting the topology of β-barrel outer membrane proteins and a consensus prediction method

  1. We list the name of the predictor, the reference paper, the type of the method (HMM, NN or SVM), whether it predicts the transmembrane strands, the full topology (TM strands+orientation) and if they are capable of discriminating between β-barrel membrane proteins from non-β barrel membrane proteins.
  2. (1) HMM-B2TMR is available as a commercial demo only.
  3. (2) The OM_Topo_predict web server was not operational, at the time when this research was conducted.
