* Color scheme for logos of proteins (for the MakeLogo program).
* The colors are based on the divisions discussed on the usenet
* and given to me by Irit Orr. Modification according to division of Joel
* Sussman. The differences from Sussman's division are -
* Met in a group by itself (not with Pro), Ala with hydrophobic (not with Gly),
* Tyr with aromatics (not with Asn and Gln), His with Arg and Lys (not by
* itself), and charged aa separated to positive and negative.
* Shmuel Pietrokovski. June 94'

* Red for acidic amino acids; Glu, Asp
D 1 0 0

*Blue for basic amino acids; Lys, Arg, His

*White for polar OH/SH amino acids; Ser, Thr, Cys
* White would not be seen onthe background so it is light grey

N 0 0.8 0.4
n 0 0.8 0.4

*Yellow (sulphur) for Metionine
M 1 0.9 0
m 1 0.9 0

*Black for hydrophobic amino acids; Ala, Val, Leu, Ile
*(Black is the opposite of white and so if white is for hydrophilic
*hydroxyl amino acids black is a natural for hydrophobic ones)
*A
*a
*V

*L

*
*Orange for aromatic amino acids; Tyr, Phe, Trp
*(since "orange" sounds a little like "aromatic" and
*oranges are aromatic (if that suits you better))

*Purple for proline; Pro
*(since both have "prl" in them)
P 0.7 0 1
p 0.7 0 1
*
*Grey for glycine; Gly
*(since both start with "g" and grey is sort of blah-like glycine)
G 0.5 0.5 0.5
g 0.5 0.5 0.5

*All other letters light blue so they would stand out
