description: This entry describes a 25-residue motif that includes an invariant Pro-Glu-Pro (PEP) motif,
  a thirteen-residue strongly hydrophobic sequence likely to span the membrane, and a five-residue strongly
  basic motif that often contains four Arg residues. In most cases, this motif is found within nine residues
  of the C-terminal end of the protein. Proteins containing this motif typically have signal sequences
  at the N-terminal [[cite:PUB00034422],[cite:PUB00105164]].
