TeXtopo v1.4
>>
>> A LaTeX package for shaded membrane protein topology plots.
>>
>> PHD topology predictions are a mighty tool to localize trans-
>> membrane domains and the protruding loops. SwissProt database
>> files provide sequence feature informations, such as mutation
>> sites, important domains, or secondary modifications. Making
>> these data visible in a sophisticated topology plot is an
>> enormous effort when using a standard drawing software.
>>
>> TeXtopo is a LaTeX2e macro package that provides two new envi-
>> ronments: (a) the textopo environment is used for plotting to-
>> pology data of membrane proteins derived from PHD predictions,
>> from SwissProt database files or from manually entered data
>> containing sequence and transmembrane domain information, and
>> (b) the helical wheel environment draws transmembrane domains
>> as seen from above or beneath the cell membrane.
>>
>> Both kinds of plots can be richly decorated with special sha-
>> ding for domains of interest, with labels and legends. TeXtopo
>> is fully compatible with TeXshade (v1.3 and up) -- the compre-
>> hensive alignment shading package for the TeX community. This
>> allows one to apply calculated shading based on sequence con-
>> servation and functional aspects of the residue sidechains.

FOR THE HASTY READER
Be sure to use a docstrip version 2.4 or later!
Otherwise you will not be able to tex the documentation!

textopo.dvi Package documentation
2 - INSTALLATION
(a) EXTRACTING FILES FROM THE DOCSTRIP ARCHIVE
All files provided by TeXtopo are compacted to one single file,
namely "textopo.dtx". To extract the archive run "textopo.ins"
- which contains the corresponding instructions - through LaTeX.
A list of the generated files is given above, see 1(a).
AGAIN: Be sure to use a docstrip version 2.4 or later! Otherwise
you will not be able to tex the documentation!
(b) THE DOCUMENTATION
The file "textopo.dtx" further contains the package documentation.
Therefore, run this file through LaTeX now. As you will recognize
two runs are needed to make proper references within the document.
TeXtopo needs lots of LaTeX's memory, so adjust your parameter set-
tings to make TeXtopo feel comfortable. The documentation is a
good test for this. (If you have problems TeXing the doc, you can
download an on-line version [PDF-, DVI-, or PostScript format] at
http://homepages.uni-tuebingen.de/beitz/)
The resulting file "textopo.dvi" can be viewed and printed using a
DVI-viewer which is able to display embedded PostScript. Another
possibility is to run "textopo.dvi" through DVIPS, a DVI to Post-
Script converter, and finally view and print the converted file
which will be most likely "textopo.ps" with GhostView from the GNU
free software foundation.
TeXtopo makes use of "color.sty" by David Carlisle. This style is
part of the Standard LaTeX Graphics Bundle. Usually, the bundle is
present in a comprehensive LaTeX installation. If this is not the
case for your system you have to download the package from a CTAN-
server, e.g. ftp.dante.de.
(c) MAKING TEXTOPO.STY AVAILABLE FOR YOUR LATEX SYSTEM
In the final step, copy at least the files "textopo.sty" and
"biotex.sty" to a directory searched by TeX in order to make these
files available for all documents you produce in the future. The
remaining files are example files which are not necessary for run-
ning TeXtopo. Nevertheless, it would be a good idea to keep all the
files together.
