Thirty amyloidogenic proteins represented by PDB models: 1A79, 1APS, 1ATI, 1B0G, 1BEB, 1CKT, 1GKG, 1HKQ, 1IRU, 1KCQ, 1LFH, 1QLX, 1REX, 1RW5, 1SOH, 1TTA, 1USG, 1W4R, 1WLA, 1X3B, 1XDA, 1XQ8, 2D4G, 2DPK, 2ES2, 2HNH, 2JD4, 2NTT, 2QJP and 3BN6. Hydrophobicity calculated using Perl program ‘stride_hydrophob’. Analysis comprised 589 amyloidogenic and 15654 non-amyloidogenic residues: 214 helical amyloidogenic, 188 strand amyloidogenic and 187 coil amyloidogenic residues; 5593 helical non-amyloidogenic, 4136 strand non-amyloidogenic and 5925 coil non-amyloidogenic residues.
Culled set obtained from PISCES website: http://dunbrack.fccc.edu/PISCES.php (<20% SID, <1.6 Å resolution, <0.25 R factor).62 Hydrophobicity calculated using Perl program ‘stride_hydrophob’. Analysis comprised 586 PDB structures consisting of 200,754 amino acid residues.
For AcP and medin, structures of homologous proteins were used (PDB IDs: 1APS and 3BN6, respectively), and the FASTA sequence from the UniProt entries, P14621 and Q08431, applies for hydrophobicity measurements.
