ABSTRACT

 

Huang J,  Shi H, A novel method to predict protein subcellular localizations, Onl J Bioinform., 6:8-21, 2004. Amino acid similarity and structure were used in a model to predict subcellular localizations for prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins. Tested with Reinhart and Hubbard’s dataset, prediction accuracies reached 100% using the self-consistency test, 92% for prokaryotic sequences and 79.2% for eukaryotic protein sequences with the jackknife test. The results suggest that amino acid structure may be a useful predictor of protein subcellular localization.

 

KEY WORDS: Support vector machine, subcellular location, amino acid similarity.
