In Proteopedia's [[SAT]] is a button ''hydrophobic/polar''. It applies these two colors according to the definitions built into Jmol:
*Hydrophobic: Ala, Cys, Gly, Ile, Leu, Met, Phe, Pro, Trp, Tyr, Val.
*Polar: Arg, Asn, Asp, Gln, Glu, His, Lys, Ser, Thr.
Jmol's categories attempt to categorize the sidechains as to their predominant characteristic. This is an oversimplification as Trp and Tyr have polar atoms; Arg, Gln, Glu, Lys have several aliphatic carbons, and His has an aromatic ring.
