PROSO

A sequence-based PROtein SOlubility evaluator.

PROSO tries to answer the following questions:

"Which of my cloned proteins have the best/worst chances tobe soluble upon heterologous expression?"



RESULTS

The input protein sequences are categorized to classes:
YES - soluble or NO - insoluble.
Additionally the probability of a class (from 0.5 to 1.0) is provided.

The probability threshold value is set by default to 0.5. By increasing it one can expect higher classification precision (selectivity) and lower recall (sensitivity) (more details in Method Description).
 
If the result cannot be calculated, a comment is written.
