What you can do: Search and predict sub-cellular localization for eukaryotic proteins of known three-dimensional (3D) structure.
Highlights:
  • LOC3D is both a weekly-updated database and a web server for predictions of sub-cellular localization for eukaryotic proteins of known three-dimensional (3D) structure.
  • Localization is predicted using four different methods: (i) PredictNLS, prediction of nuclear proteins through nuclear localization signals; (ii) LOChom, inferring localization through sequence homology; (iii) LOCkey, inferring localization through automatic text analysis of SWISS-PROT keywords; and (iv) LOC3Dini, ab initio prediction through a system of neural networks and vector support machines. The final prediction is based on the method that predicts localization with the highest confidence.
  • The web server can be used to predict sub-cellular localization for proteins for which only a predicted structure is available from threading servers.
