1T: the target residue, C4: the 4th residue C terminal to the target residue, N4: the 4th residue N terminal to the target residue. Thus, the conservation index of the target residue is most indicative of its burial status, and the conservation index of the 4th residue C terminal to the target residue is second most indicative of the burial status of the target residue.
2L: leucine, G: glycine, I: isoleucine, V: valine, F: phenylalanine and S: serine.
