SubLoc v1.0

SubLoc is a prediction system for protein subcellular localization based on amino acid composition alone.

Support Vector Machine (SVM) method is used in SubLoc.

SubLoc predicts locations of prokaryotic and eukaryotic sequences separately.

For prokaryotic sequences, SubLoc predicts three locations (cytoplasmic, periplasmic and extracellular).

For eukaryotic sequences, SubLoc predicts four locations (cytoplasmic, extracellular, mitochondrial and nuclear).

SubLoc v1.0 is based on the dataset of Reinhardt and Hubbard (Nucleic Acid Research, 1998, 26:2230-2236).
