ESG: extended similarity group method for automated protein function prediction
MOTIVATION Importance of accurate automatic protein function prediction is ever increasing in the face of a large number of newly sequenced genomes and proteomics data that are awaiting biological interpretation. Conventional methods have focused on high sequence similarity-based annotation transfer which relies on the concept of homology. However, many cases have been reported that simple tran...
متن کاملPFP/ESG: automated protein function prediction servers enhanced with Gene Ontology visualization tool
UNLABELLED Protein function prediction (PFP) is an automated function prediction method that predicts Gene Ontology (GO) annotations for a protein sequence using distantly related sequences and contextual associations of GO terms. Extended similarity group (ESG) is another GO prediction algorithm that makes predictions based on iterative sequence database searches. Here, we provide interactive ...
متن کاملAutomated protein function prediction - the genomic challenge
Overwhelmed with genomic data, biologists are facing the first big post-genomic question--what do all genes do? First, not only is the volume of pure sequence and structure data growing, but its diversity is growing as well, leading to a disproportionate growth in the number of uncharacterized gene products. Consequently, established methods of gene and protein annotation, such as homology-base...
متن کاملAutomated Prediction of Protein Function from Sequence
Investigation of protein gene function is a central question in molecular biology, biochemistry, and genetics. Because genes evolved from the same ancestral gene retain similarity in their function in most cases, finding known genes which have sufficient sequence similarity is a powerful way for predicting function. In this chapter we review computational techniques and resources for gene funct...
متن کاملExtended Sequence Alignment Method for Protein Secondary Structure Prediction
Sequence alignment methods are very e ective for secondary structure prediction. However, they are only applicable when the similarity of the sequences is high enough. We previously reported that the extended sequence alignment method, which uses not only amino acid letters but also strings of amino acid letters representing motifs as comparing units, enabled us to nd common motifs even among t...
