PSIONplus

Introduction

PSIONplusm is a webserver that predicts ion channels and their types, including voltage-gated channel for potassium, voltage-gated channel for sodium, voltage-gated channel for calcium, voltage-gated channel for anions, ligand-gated channel for potassium, ligand-gated channel for sodium, ligand-gated channel for calcium, ligand-gated channel for anion and non-ion-channel. The predictions are performed sequentially by combining the outputs generated with three SVM-based model from the PSIONplus method(PSIONION, PSIONVLG, PSIONVGS) and BLAST. This is the first method that performs multi-label ion channel type prediction, which means that one protein chain can be predicted as multiple ion channel types. For more details, please see our articles listed below.
