Figure 1.

Helical wheel projection and the predicted structure of temporin peptides. The structure prediction of (A) GHa and (B) GHa4R. The left column shows the helical wheel illustration of the peptide generated by using Heliquest, and the arrow indicates the direction of the hydrophobic torque. The middle column demonstrates the 3D structure predicted by PEP-FOLD. The hydrophilic surface is expressed in blue, and the hydrophobic surface is in yellow. The right column depicts the secondary structure of the peptides predicted by PEP-FOLD. The helical, coil, and extended conformation are colored red, blue, and green.
