crucianiProperties: Compute the Cruciani properties of a protein sequence

In Peptides: Calculate Indices and Theoretical Physicochemical Properties of Protein Sequences

Compute the Cruciani properties of a protein sequence

Description

This function calculates the Cruciani properties of an amino-acids sequence using the scaled principal component scores that summarize a broad set of descriptors calculated based on the interaction of each amino acid residue with several chemical groups (or "probes"), such as charged ions, methyl, hydroxyl groups, and so forth.

Usage

crucianiProperties(seq)

Arguments

seq	An amino-acids sequence

Value

The computed average of Cruciani properties of all the amino acids in the corresponding peptide sequence. Each PP represent an amino-acid property as follows:

• PP1: Polarity,

• PP2: Hydrophobicity,

• PP3: H-bonding
