pTARGET -- a web server for predicting protein subcellular localization

What you can do:
Prediction protein subcellular localization in eukaryotic non-plant species.
Highlights:
  • The pTARGET web server enables prediction of nine distinct protein subcellular localizations in eukaryotic non-plant species.
  • The prediction algorithm is primarily based on the occurrence patterns of location-specific protein functional domains in nine different subcellular locations, including cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum, extracellular/secreted, Golgi, lysosomes, mitochondria, nucleus, peroxysomes and plasma membrane.
  • Queries can be made by entering protein sequences or by uploading a file containing up to 5000 protein sequences in FASTA format.
  • Prediction results for queries with matching entries in the PreCalcDB, a relational database containing pre-computed prediction results for all eukaryotic non-plant protein sequences in the public domain that includes about 770 000 entries, will be retrieved instantly; while for the missing ones new predictions will be computed and sent by email.
  • Pre-computed predictions can also be downloaded for complete proteomes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila, Mus musculus and Homo sapiens.
