TMsAACompFilter

Calculates the difference of the AA composition of every TM with that of natural TMs. natural TM amino-acid composition based on Liu, Y., et al. 2002, ‘Genomic analysis of membrane protein families: abundance and conserved motifs.’. as leucine is the most hydrophobic residue in the dsTbL insertion profiles (see MPResidueLipophilicityEnergy, a minimization will substitute every possible membrane facing residue to leucine. when wishing to design with more variability use sigmoids and GenericMonteCarlo, to optimize this filter and the total score.
