Secondary structure and solvent accessibility prediction of the C-terminal end of IEP86. The structural predictions were made by using the program PROFsec and MSA, as described in Materials and Methods. Amino acids in the various β-herpesvirus IEP86-like proteins which are identical to the HCMV Towne IEP86 sequence are shown in bold. Shown at the bottom of each MSA block are the predictions for secondary structure (PROF Sec. Struct.) (H, alpha helix; E, beta strand; L, loop) and solvent accessibility (Solv. Access) (e, exposed; b, buried) and the reliability of these predictions (Reliability SS and Reliability Acc., respectively). The reliability of the predictions varies between 0 (low) and 9 (high). Secondary structure predictions made with an expected average accuracy higher than 82% are in bold. The subset of solvent accessibility predictions with reliability higher than 4 is shown in bold. For a comparison, the alpha helices predicted for the three-dimensional model (Fig. 11) are shown as thick lines at the top of each block (H1 to H8).
