Identifying anticancer peptides by using improved hybrid compositions

چکیده
Cancer is one of the main causes of threats to human life. Identification of anticancer peptides is important for developing effective anticancer drugs. In this paper, we developed an improved predictor to identify the anticancer peptides. The amino acid composition (AAC), the average chemical shifts (acACS) and the reduced amino acid composition (RAAC) were selected to predict the anticancer peptides by using the support vector machine (SVM). The overall prediction accuracy reaches to 93.61% in jackknife test. The results indicated that the combined parameter was helpful to the prediction for anticancer peptides.
