The function of transmembrane (TM) proteins is closely correlated to their TM topology; large quantities of highly reliable TM topology data are becoming increasingly required. We present a new consensus approach for TM topology prediction (ConPred_elite) that can predict the whole topology with accuracies of 0.98 for prokaryotic and 0.95 for eukaryotic proteins on a dataset of experimentally-characterized TM topologies. The predicted yield on the dataset is 30.4% for prokaryotic and 21.5% for eukaryotic proteins. Applying ConPred-elite to predicted TM proteins extracted from 29 prokaryotic and 10 eukaryotic proteomes, we obtained 3871 and 7271 highly reliable TM topologies (yields, 19.8 and 13.3%), respectively. The predicted TM topology data may contribute to further research into a comprehensive functional classification and identification of TM proteins based on information of the topology.
