title: Secondary structure prediction of fish protamines.
abstract: The secondary structures of thirteen fish protamines have been predicted by the statistical method of Chou and Fasman as well as by two modifications of it. The occurrence of phosphorylatable residues in predicted beta-turns is discussed. The results are compared with available spectroscopic observations.
