What you can do: Predict allergens based on similarity of known epitope with any region of a protein and map the position of epitope in the protein.
Highlights:
  • AlgPred has been developed for the predicting allergenic proteins and for mapping IgE epitopes on allergenic proteins.
  • It facilitates BLAST search against 2890 allergen-representative peptides (ARPs) obtained from Bjorklund et al 2005 and assign a protein allergen if it have a BLAST hit.
  • Hybrid option of server allows to predict allergen using combined approach (SVMc + IgE epitope + ARPs BLAST + MAST).
Keywords:
  • allergenic proteins prediction tool
  • IgE epitopes mapping tool
