Structural properties of the novel hymenochirin peptides predicted from the H. boettgeri transcripts.

Average mass was calculated with http://www.peptidesynthetics.co.uk/tools. Hydrophobicity was calculated following the Combined Consensus Scale [31] as implemented in HydroMCalc. The mean hydrophobic moment is the vectorial sum of all the hydrophobicity indices, divided by the number of residues. The mean hydrophobicity is the total hydrophobicity (sum of all residue hydrophobicity indices) divided by the number of residues. Helicity was calculated with PSIPRED v3.0 [30].
