Prediction of amyloid fibril-forming segments based on a support vector machine

BMC Bioinformatics

Table 3 Fibril-forming Propensity of proteins in the Uniprot Knowledgebase classed based on taxonomy. The Predicted fibril-forming hexpeptides were identified by obtaining RI ≥ 7.

^aThe division of proteins is same to the Uniprot database. Every protein is present in exactly one taxonomic division. Human contains all human related proteins. Mammals contain all mammalian proteins except those from human and rodents. Vertebrates contain all vertebrate proteins except those from mammals. Invertebrates contain all eukaryotic proteins except those from vertebrates, fungi and plants.
