Description

Here is Mini-CASP 15 again, this time with the secondary structure predictions posted in the puzzle comments. Please try to use the secondary structure predictions for this puzzle so that we can compare the results to Freestyle A once the native is released. Thanks!

Here is the sequence logo predicted by the SAM server:

H = helix
E = sheet
C = loop (or coil)

The taller the letter at each position, the higher the probability of that specific secondary structure for that amino acid.

For example, the amino acid Alanine at residue 10 is highly predicted to be part of a helix. However, the two Valines at residues 40 and 41 are both predicted to have an equal probability of being in a sheet or loop!
