eprop

 

Function

Reports propeptide cleavage sites in proteins

Description

ProP 1.0 server predicts arginine and lysine propeptide cleavage sites in eukaryotic protein sequences using an ensemble of neural networks. Furin-specific prediction is the default. It is also possible to perform a general proprotein convertase (PC) prediction.
