title: Structure predictions of membrane proteins are not that bad.
abstract: A simple generalization of the well-known hydrophobicity analysis is sufficient to predict membrane-spanning amphiphilic alpha-helices and beta-strands. The use of this method is illustrated for bacteriorhodopsin, OmpA protein and the photosynthetic reaction centre.
