Abstract:
Membrane proteins can be classified among the following five types: (1) type I
membrane protein; (2) type II membrane protein; (3) multipass transmembrane proteins;
(4) lipid chain-anchored membrane proteins; (5) GPI-anchored membrane proteins. A
new learning machine, the Support Vector Machine, is applied for predicting the type of a
given membrane protein by incorporating the quasi-sequence-order effect. High success
rates were obtained by the self-consistency test (2030/2059 = 99%), jackknife test
(1696/2059 = 82%), and independent data test (2305/2625 = 88%).
