Statistical membrane potential
Novel features of our potential:
Reference to the surface of membrane bilayer instead of the center
--> Hydrophobic thickness dependence
Statistics of H-bonds in TMHs
--> Additional terms for unpaired NH, CO
Derived from the most exposed 50% residues
Our work is inspired by Chaim A. Schramm et. al. (Structure 20, 924-35).
Insertion Protocol
The optimal orietation and the hydrophobic thickness are determined by grid search.
