DAS-TMfilter – On filtering False Positive Transmembrane Protein Prediction

DAS-TMfilter

:: DESCRIPTION

The modified DAS method, the DAS-TMfilter algorithm, has an unchanged high sensitivity for TM segments ( approximately 95% detected in a learning set of 128 documented transmembrane proteins). At the same time, the selectivity measured over a non-redundant set of 526 soluble proteins with known 3D structure is approximately 99%, mainly because a large number of falsely predicted single membrane-pass proteins are eliminated by the DAS-TMfilter algorithm.
