Hi Yasser,

InflateGRO and g_membed do not predict the insertion or orientation, but
require the protein to be oriented already. With InflateGRO2, Christian
Kandt also brought out LAMBADA which may help aligning a protein with the
membrane. memembed is also an orientation predictor. However, I usually
just get the protein from the orientations of proteins in membranes (OPM)
database at http://opm.phar.umich.edu/

Cheers,

Tsjerk
