ProTeus -- identifying signatures in protein termini
What you can do:
Identify short linear signatures in protein termini.
Highlights:
- ProTeus (PROtein TErminUS) is a tool for identification of short linear signatures in protein termini.
- It is based on a positional-based search method for revealing short significant signatures in termini of proteins.
- The initial step in ProTeus development was to collect all signature groups (SIGs) based on their relative positions at the termini.
- The SIGs that were found significant represent protein sets with minimal or no overall sequence similarity besides the similarity found at the termini.
- These SIGs were archived and are presented at ProTeus. The SIGs are sorted by their strong correspondence to functional annotation from external databases such as GO.
- ProTeus provides rich search and visualization tools for evaluating the quality of different SIGs.
