| Method |
"To get an idea of the total number of integral membrane proteins
in each organism, [researchers] carried out hydrophobicity analysis predictions
with different selection criteria." |
| Comments |
"In general, [researchers] find that 20-
30% of all ORFs encode integral membrane proteins, and that
there is an apparent preference for 6 and 12 transmembrane segments
among the unicellular organisms and a weak preference for
7 transmembrane segments in C. elegans and H. sapiens." For the same value in eukaryotes see Singh 2017 PMID 28119915 p.1 bottom paragraph |
