Physicochemical properties of SPs of TRAP clients. (A–C) We used custom scripts to compute the hydrophobicity score (A), apparent delta G (B), and glycine/proline (GP) content (C) of SP sequences. Hydrophobicity score was calculated as the averaged hydrophobicity of its amino acids according to the well-known Kyte-Doolittle propensity scale. Apparent delta G values were determined with the ΔGapp predictor for TM helix insertion (http://dgpred.cbr.su.se). GP content was calculated as the total fraction of glycine and proline in the respective sequence. (D) We also used custom scripts to extract protein annotations for all human, E. coli and S. cerevisiae SPs from UniProtKB entries and to calculate their GP content. (E,F) Cartoon of unclipped (E) and clipped (F) 80S ribosome together with Sec61-complex and TRAP, and OST. Notably, without clipping eL38 and helix 51 is partially hidden.
