Abstract
Recently, methods for the analysis and design of water-soluble, oligom eric bundles of a helices, including coiled coils, have reached a high level of sophistication. These same methods may now be applied to tra nsmembrane helical bundles. Studies of the transmembrane domains of gl ycophorin, phospholamban, and the M-2 protein from influenza A virus e xemplify this general approach.
