Abstract

Transmembrane proteins span the lipid bilayer and are divided into two major structural classes, namely alpha helical and beta barrels. We introduce DeepTMHMM, a deep learning protein language model-based algorithm that can detect and predict the topology of both alpha helical and beta barrels proteins with unprecedented accuracy. DeepTMHMM (https://dtu.biolib.com/DeepTMHMM) scales to proteomes and covers all domains of life, which makes it ideal for metagenomics analyses.
