CommentThis hidden Markov model detects a 10-residue targeting sequence common to beta-barrel outer membrane proteins (OMP) that rely on Omp85-like proteins for insertion into the outer membrane. Hits should be trusted if they include the last amino acid of a protein sequence that occurs in Gram-negative bacteria. It has been noted that Omp85 target sequences differ somewhat by species, while this model works generally for most Proteobacteria. For a given species, an iterated approach, in which trusted matches to this model become the basis of a new model that finds additional OMP signals, is recommended.
