TEXtopo: shaded membrane protein topology plots in LaTEX2ε

Abstract

Summary: T_EXtopo is a LaT_EX2_ε macro package for plotting topology data directly from PHD predictions or SwissProt database files in publication-ready quality. The plot can be shaded automatically to emphasize conserved residues or functional properties of the residue sidechains. The addition of rich decorations, such as labels, annotations and legends, is easily accomplished.
