What you can do:
Predict cleavage sites at basic amino acid locations in neuropeptide precursor sequences.
Highlights:
  • NeuroPred is a web application designed to predict cleavage sites at basic amino acid locations in neuropeptide precursor sequences using logistic regression models trained on experimentally verified or published cleavage data from mollusks, mammals and insects, and amino acid motifs reported to be associated with cleavage.
  • In addition to the precursor sequence, NeuroPred accepts user-specified cleavage information, providing model accuracy statistics based on observed and predicted cleavages.
  • Neuropred also computes the mass of the predicted peptides, including user-selectable post-translational modifications. The resulting mass list aids the discovery and confirmation of new neuropeptides using mass spectrometry techniques.
