Hydrophobicity plot using BioPython on Google Colab Notebook
A hydrophobicity or lipophilicity plot is a 2D graphical display of the hydrophobic regions in the protein. The Kyte-Doolittle scale was widely used for identifying surface-exposed regions and transmembrane regions. The plot has the amino acid sequence of a protein on its x -axis and a degree of hydrophobicity on its y -axis. The graph regions with a positive value are hydrophobic. There are several hydrophobicity scales have been published for various uses. The commonly used hydrophobicity scales are Kyte-Doolittle scale, Engelman scale (GES scale), Eisenberg scale, Hopp-Woods scale, Cornette scale, Rose scale, and Janin scale.
