Description PEPINFO application details page

Plots simple amino acid properties in parallel

pepinfo detects and displays various useful metrics about a proteinsequence.

It can plot and display the following properties:

  • plots of hydrophobicity (using the method of Kyte & Doolittle), ofOHM (Sweet & Eisenberg), or of consensus parameters (Eisenberg et al))
  • a histogram of the presence of residues with the physico-chemicalproperties: Tiny, Small, Aliphatic, Aromatic, Non-polar, Polar,Charged, Positive, Negative.

The data are also written out to a data file.
