PredSL

An algorithm that exploits neural networks, Markov Chains, and HMMs for the prediction of the subcellular localization of proteins in eukaryotic cells from the N-terminal amino acid sequence and aims to classify proteins into five groups:

Chloroplast
Thylakoid
Mitochondrion
Secreted proteins
and Other

Analysis of a non-redundant test set, consisting of plant protein sequences provides a ~90% accuracy, whereas analysis of a similar set of nonplant protein sequences provides a ~92% accuracy. These results are reported in detail in the respective web pages linked on the side
