Kyte-Doolittle with adjustable window
Protein sequence
—Most hydrophobic
—Most hydrophilic
Kyte-Doolittle scale. Positive values are hydrophobic, negative hydrophilic. A window of 9 suits surface regions; 19 is the usual choice for finding transmembrane helices, and a stretch staying above 1.6 at that window is a strong candidate.
