The TOPCONS workflow: four of the topology predictors (OCTOPUS, PolyPhobius, SPOCTOPUS and SCAMPI) use an MSA-derived sequence profile as input, whereas the fifth method (Philius) only requires the protein sequence. The topology predictions are used to construct a topology profile, which is fed into the TOPCONS Hidden Markov Model and the final consensus topology is created.
