TMH

TMH is an acronym that can refer to several different topics and institutions, depending on the context. In scientific literature, TMH most commonly denotes a transmembrane helix, a segment of a protein that spans a biological membrane. Transmembrane helices are typically formed by hydrophobic amino acids and are a central feature of membrane proteins. Their number, arrangement, and orientation determine the topology of the protein within the membrane, and they are frequently predicted and annotated in protein studies using computational tools.

In medical and regional contexts, TMH most commonly refers to Tata Memorial Hospital, part of the Tata Memorial Centre in Mumbai, India. The institution was established in 1941 by the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and has grown into a leading national center for cancer treatment, research, and education. The Tata Memorial Centre comprises clinical care facilities (the hospital) and associated research programs, and it operates under the umbrella of the Department of Atomic Energy. It serves patients from across India and the region and contributes to cancer research, training, and specialized treatment.

Other uses of the acronym TMH may exist in different fields or organizations. Because acronyms can be context-dependent, the intended meaning of TMH should be inferred from the subject matter, location, or affiliated institutions in a given discussion.
