Secondary structure prediction of anterior pituitary hormones. Lack of correlation between predicted values and circular dichroism data.
The secondary structures of human somatotropin, human choriomammotropin, ovine and porcine prolactin, human, ovine and porcine beta-lipotropin, human and ovine lutropin, human thyrotropin, human corticotropin, alpha-melanotropin and human beta-melanotropin have been predicted by the method of Chou & Fasman. Predicted contents of alpha-helix and beta-sheet do not correspond well with values estimated from circular dichroism spectra.
