Localizome -- a server for identifying transmembrane topologies and TM helices of eukaryotic proteins utilizing domain information

What you can do:
Predict the transmembrane (TM) helix number and TM topology of a user-supplied eukaryotic protein.
Highlights:
  • The Localizome server predicts the transmembrane helix number and topology of a eukaryotic protein, using hmmpfam to detect the presence of Pfam domains and a prediction algorithm, Phobius, to predict the TM helices.
  • The results are checked against LocaloDom, a curated protein domain database that contains TM topologies and TM helix numbers of known protein domains.
  • With a graphical representation of TM topology and TM helix positions with the domain units, the Localizome server is a highly accurate and comprehensive information source for subcellular localization for soluble proteins as well as membrane proteins.
