Description

This is another tough one! None of the alignment programs were able to find good templates for this target, and it might be the case that this protein has no homologs. Again we are giving you 6 templates (in hope that one of them is correct) for now, and will provide you with some server predictions once they are released. More details about this CASP target are in the puzzle comments.

Here is the CASP link for this target (showing the amino acid sequence):
http://predictioncenter.org/casp10/target.cgi?id=70
__________________

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 Valines at residues 6, 7, & 10 are highly predicted to be in a helix. However, the Valines at residues 59, 60, 64 & 65 are predicted to be in a sheet.

Keep in mind that it's very likely that ONLY ONE of these templates is close to the native (if we're lucky!)
