JPred3 was published in 1998 by Christian Cole, Jonathan D. Barber and Geoffrey J. Barton.
  +
  +
Reference: [http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/14/10/892.short Original paper], [http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/content/36/suppl_2/W197.abstract current version]
  +
  +
JPred3 uses the JNet 2.0 algorithm to make its predictions. This algorithm generates profiles using PSI-Blast (which is used to build a position-specific scoring matrix) and HMMer (which is used to construct HMM profiles.) Both position-specific scoring matrix and the HMMs are used to predict secondary structure and solvent accessibility.
  +
  +
Input: A protein sequence or a pre-made MSA; a PDB database is needed, too, but provided by the JPred3 server.

DSSP (Define Secondary Structure of Proteins) is a software for secondary structure assignment and was published in 1983 by Wolfgang Kabsch and Chris Sander.
  +
Reference: [http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bip.360221211/abstract Original paper]
  +
  +
DSSP does not predict secondary structure from amino acid sequences; instead, it uses a 3D structure (a PDB file) to deduce the secondary structure from the 3D structure. To this end, DSSP examines the phi and psi angles and the C alpha positions in the protein backbone and H-bonds present in the structure; these are used to define "n-turns", which are H-bonds between the NH and CO groups of amino acids with sequence separations of 3-5 residues, and "bridges" with greater sequence separations. Repeating 4-turns are used to identify helices, repeating bridges identify beta sheets.
  +
  +
Input: A 3D structure (a PDB file, ID 2o53 in our case)
  +
  +
Output: (from [http://swift.cmbi.ru.nl/gv/dssp/DSSP_2.html])
  +
<pre> H = alpha helix
  +
B = residue in isolated beta-bridge
  +
E = extended strand, participates in beta ladder
  +
G = 3-helix (3/10 helix)
  +
I = 5 helix (pi helix)
  +
T = hydrogen bonded turn
  +
S = bend </pre>
  +
  +
The results differ from those of the two secondary structure predictors, as the PDB file contains a dimer, whereas the Uniprot sequence only contains one domain (which is a sensible thing, since both domains are essentially identical.)
  +
  +
The prediction shows slight differences between both domains; we assume that reasons for this are slight differences in the actual 3D structure of the two chains as well as H-bonds between the two chains.

All in all, the two prediction methods Psipred and JPred3 did a good job; they managed to predict most of the main secondary structure elements, with only minor variations in length and position of the individual helices/sheets and very minor variations between each other. A somewhat more detailed result from DSSP is to be expected, as it has pointedly better information to and merely assigns instead of actually predicting the secondary structure.

DISOPRED predicts native disorder in proteins. It was published in 2004 by Ward JJ, Sodhi JS, McGuffin LJ, Buxton BF and Jones DT.
  +
Reference: [http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022283604001482]
  +
  +
DISOPRED uses linear support vector machines to predict disorder in a given protein sequence. A set of 750 proteins with high-quality structures was used as training data; to this end, PSI-Blast profiles were generated by aligning the training structures against a filtered database of protein structures. The resulting profiles were used to train the SVMs.

  +
  +
Input: Protein amino acid sequence
  +
  +
POODLE-I is an integrated variant of other flavors of POODLE (-S and -L for short/long regions of disorder and -W for proteins that are mostly disordered) and several other tools like Psipred, JNet etc. It employs a rather involved [http://mbs.cbrc.jp/poodle/images/workflow.png workflow].

IUPRED is a software for the prediction of intrinsically unstructured regions in proteins. It was published in 2005 by Zsuzsanna Dosztányi, Veronika Csizmók, Péter Tompa and István Simon.
  +
  +
Reference: IUPred: web server for the prediction of intrinsically unstructured regions of proteins based on estimated energy content
  +
Zsuzsanna Dosztányi, Veronika Csizmók, Péter Tompa and István Simon, Bioinformatics (2005) 21, 3433-3434.
  +
  +
IUPRED predicts disordered regions by estimating the capacity of the amino acid chain to form stabilizing contacts. The underlying assumption is that proteins intrinsically unable to do so have distinct sequences that can be identified via their unfavorable energy values. To this end a 20x20 predictor matrix was calculated from a set of globular proteins with known structure. IUPRED uses this matrix to derive a tendency to be intrinsically unstructured from the amino acid composition alone.
  +
  +
Input: An amino acid sequence.
  +
  +
IUPRED comes in three flavors: Long Disorder, which specializes in finding long stretches of disorder, Short Disorder, which does the same for short stretches of disorder, and structured regions, which predicts regions lacking disorder.

  +
IUPRED predicts one structured region comprised of the whole input sequence.
  +
  +
  +
  +
====Results====
  +
IUPRED predicts no significant disorder in Aspartoacyclase. The disorder tendency stays below 0.5 in all cases (except for short stretches of about 3-5 residues at each end of the sequence in short disorder mode, which are negligible) and the structured regions mode predicts one continuous structured region spanning all of the protein sequence. This makes sense when looking at the 3D structure: Aspartoacyclase is a rather densely packed globular structure, which according to the assumptions that IUPRED makes has a strong tendency to form many inter-residue contacts and to stabilize itself thereby, markedly reducing the tendency for disorder in the process.

Meta-Disorder, as the name implies, employs a set of so-called orthogonal disorder predictors in order to combine their strengths and mitigate their weak points. It was published in 2009 by Avner Schlessinger, Marco Punta, Guy Yachdav, Laszlo Kajan and Burkhard Rost.

  +
Reference: [http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0004433 Paper]
  +
  +
As with the previous methods, Meta-Disorder predicts disorder from the amino acid sequence alone; results from the predictors IUPRED, DISOPRED, NORSnet and Ucon are molded into one final result using a neural network.

The last column indicates whether or not disorder was predicted at the current position. Meta-Disorder predicts a total of four disorder positions, which are not significant. This coincides with the predictions of the other programs employed previously - not alltogether surprising, since Meta-Disorder draws its predictions from two of them.

The results of this task are unequivocal: Aspartoacyclase does not contain any transmembrane regions. From a biological point of view this was to be expected, as Aspartoacyclase is known to be located in the cytosol.

TMHMM uses a hidden markov model to predict transmembrane helices in proteins. It was published in 1998 by E. L.L. Sonnhammer, G. von Heijne, and A. Krogh.
  +
  +
Reference: [http://people.binf.ku.dk/~krogh/publications/ps/SonnhammerEtal98.pdf Original paper]
  +
  +
The hidden markov model used by TMHMM models the biological structure with states for helix turns, helix caps and loops on either side of the membrane, which are specially designed to model membrane insertion, too. The HMM probabilities were estimated both by using a maximum likelihood method and a discriminative method.
  +
  +
Results for Aspartoacyclase very clearly show absence of any sort of transmembrane structure, which is biologically sound.

Phobius is a program for the prediction of transmembrane region with special emphasis on reducing confusion with signal peptides. It was published in 2005 by Käll L, Krogh A, Sonnhammer EL.
  +
  +
Reference: [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15111065?dopt=Abstract Paper]
  +
  +
Signal peptides and transmembrane proteins share a great deal of similarity and are often confused by predictors for either class; Phobius aims to predict both and to discriminate between them. It employs a hidden markov model to do this, modelling the different sequence regions pertaining to either class.
  +
  +
Input: An amino acid sequence.
  +
  +
Again, neither signal nor transmembrane regions were detected in Aspartoacyclase.

OCTOPUS uses a combination of hidden markov models and neural networks to predict transmembrane regions. It was published in 2004 by Käll L, Krogh A, Sonnhammer EL.
  +
  +
Reference: [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15111065?ordinalpos=6&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DefaultReportPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum Original paper]
  +
  +
OCROPUS first creates a sequence profile by running BLAST with the input sequence. Neural networks are used to subsequently predict the propensity for each residue to be located in a transmembrane region or in certain structure patterns on either side of the membrane. The resulting propensities are then fed to a hidden markov model, which calculates the most likely topology.
  +
  +
SPOCTOPUS extends OCTOPUS with a preprocessor that uses a neural network to assess the probability that the first 70 residues of the input sequence contain a signal peptide sequence. If this scores high enough, a hidden markov model is used to ascertain the exact offset of the signal region.
  +
  +
No transmembrane/signal regions were predicted for Aspartoacyclase.

  +
Reference: [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9051728?dopt=Abstract Original paper], [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15223320?dopt=Abstract current version]
  +
  +
SignalP comes in two flavours: One using a neural network, the other using a hidden markov model. It supports discriminating between cleaved and uncleaved signal peptides and supports both prokaryotic and eukaryotic input.
  +
  +
Input: A protein sequence.
  +
  +
Neither flavour detected any signal sequence in Aspartoacyclase.

TargetP is a software for the prediction of the cellular location of certain proteins, based on location signals in their sequence. It was published in 2000 by Olof Emanuelsson1, Henrik Nielsen2, Søren Brunak2 and Gunnar von Heijne1.
  +
  +
Reference: Predicting subcellular localization of proteins based on their N-terminal amino acid sequence. Olof Emanuelsson1, Henrik Nielsen2, Søren Brunak2 and Gunnar von Heijne1. J. Mol. Biol., 300: 1005-1016, 2000.
  +
  +
TargetP confines its analysis to the N-terminal part of the sequence, it can discriminate between proteins destined for either mitochondrion, chloroplast (plants only, for obvious reasons), the secretory pathway or another location.
  +
  +
The prediction for Aspartoacyclase was "other location", which is plausible, as the enzyme is known to reside in the cytosol.

===Analysis===
  +
  +
====BACR_HALSA====
  +
  +
TM Prediction:
  +
TMHMM predicts one helix less than the other tools (ca. 216-237); other than that, all methods consent on 7 TM helices with insignificant differences. The PDB structure shows that this is correct.
  +
  +
Signalpeptid:
  +
SignalP predicts it to be a signal peptide (NN mode) and a signal anchor (HMM mode); according to the information we found on the protein, both predictions are faulty.
  +
  +
Target prediction:
  +
TargetP predicted this protein to be located in the secretory pathway and to be a signal peptide; this is not correct.
  +
  +
====RET4_HUMAN====
  +
  +
TM Prediction:
  +
Only Octopus predicts a TM helix; this is a mis-identified signal sequence. The other programs predict no TM helices, which is correct.
  +
  +
Signal peptide prediction:
  +
Phobius predicts it to be a signal peptide; so do Spoctopus, and SignalP, with the cleaving site at position 18. According to Uniprot, this is correct.
  +
  +
Target prediction:
  +
TargetP predicted this protein to be a signal peptide in the secretory pathway; this is correct.
  +
  +
====INSL5_HUMAN====
  +
  +
TM Prediction:
  +
Only Octopus predicts a transmembrane element, which is a mis-identified signal sequence.
  +
  +
Signal peptide prediction:
  +
Phobius predicts a signal sequence with cleaving site at 22; Spoctopus predicts the cleaving site at 23; SignalP predicts it to be between 22 and 23.
  +
  +
Target prediction:
  +
TargetP predicted this protein to be a signal peptide in the secretory pathway; this is correct.
  +
  +
====LAMP1_HUMAN====
  +
  +
TM Prediction:
  +
TMHMM detects two TM helices; so does Octopus. One TM helix is detected as a signal sequence by Spoctopus and Phobius.
  +
  +
Signal peptide prediction:
  +
Phobius, Spoctopus and SignalP find a signal sequence with cleaving site at 28-29. This is correct, according to Uniprot.
  +
  +
Target prediction:
  +
TargetP predicted this protein to be a signal peptide in the secretory pathway; since it is membrane-located, this is not correct.
  +
  +
====A4_HUMAN====
  +
  +
TM Prediction:
  +
One TM helix from 701 to 723 predicted by all programms (end is 722 in case of Octopus and Spoctopus). One short reentrant sequence predicted by Octopus, which is a mis-identified signal sequence.
  +
  +
Signal peptide prediction:
  +
Spoctopus, SignalP and Phobius all report a signal sequence with cleaving site at 17-19. According to Uniprot, this is correct.
  +
  +
Target prediction:
  +
TargetP predicted this protein to be a signal peptide in the secretory pathway; this is wrong, as it is membrane-associated.

JPred3

JPred3 was published in 1998 by Christian Cole, Jonathan D. Barber and Geoffrey J. Barton.

Reference: Original paper, current version

JPred3 uses the JNet 2.0 algorithm to make its predictions. This algorithm generates profiles using PSI-Blast (which is used to build a position-specific scoring matrix) and HMMer (which is used to construct HMM profiles.) Both position-specific scoring matrix and the HMMs are used to predict secondary structure and solvent accessibility.

Input: A protein sequence or a pre-made MSA; a PDB database is needed, too, but provided by the JPred3 server.

DSSP

DSSP (Define Secondary Structure of Proteins) is a software for secondary structure assignment and was published in 1983 by Wolfgang Kabsch and Chris Sander. Reference: Original paper

DSSP does not predict secondary structure from amino acid sequences; instead, it uses a 3D structure (a PDB file) to deduce the secondary structure from the 3D structure. To this end, DSSP examines the phi and psi angles and the C alpha positions in the protein backbone and H-bonds present in the structure; these are used to define "n-turns", which are H-bonds between the NH and CO groups of amino acids with sequence separations of 3-5 residues, and "bridges" with greater sequence separations. Repeating 4-turns are used to identify helices, repeating bridges identify beta sheets.

Input: A 3D structure (a PDB file, ID 2o53 in our case)

Output: (from [1]) 

    H = alpha helix
    B = residue in isolated beta-bridge
    E = extended strand, participates in beta ladder
    G = 3-helix (3/10 helix)
    I = 5 helix (pi helix)
    T = hydrogen bonded turn
    S = bend

The results differ from those of the two secondary structure predictors, as the PDB file contains a dimer, whereas the Uniprot sequence only contains one domain (which is a sensible thing, since both domains are essentially identical.)

The prediction shows slight differences between both domains; we assume that reasons for this are slight differences in the actual 3D structure of the two chains as well as H-bonds between the two chains.

All in all, the two prediction methods Psipred and JPred3 did a good job; they managed to predict most of the main secondary structure elements, with only minor variations in length and position of the individual helices/sheets and very minor variations between each other. A somewhat more detailed result from DSSP is to be expected, as it has pointedly better information to and merely assigns instead of actually predicting the secondary structure.

Prediction of disordered regions

DISOPRED

DISOPRED predicts native disorder in proteins. It was published in 2004 by Ward JJ, Sodhi JS, McGuffin LJ, Buxton BF and Jones DT. Reference: [2]

DISOPRED uses linear support vector machines to predict disorder in a given protein sequence. A set of 750 proteins with high-quality structures was used as training data; to this end, PSI-Blast profiles were generated by aligning the training structures against a filtered database of protein structures. The resulting profiles were used to train the SVMs.

Asterisks (*) represent disorder predictions and dots (.) 
prediction of order. The confidence estimates give a rough
indication of the probability that each residue is disordered.

POODLE

POODLE (Prediction Of Order and Disorder by machine LEarning) is a series of programs published between 2005 and 2008. We used the latest variant, POODLE-I, which was published in 2008 by S.Hirose, K.Shimizu, N.Inoue, S.Kanai and T.Noguchi.

Reference: S.Hirose, K.Shimizu, N.Inoue, S.Kanai and T.Noguchi, "Disordered region prediction by integrating POODLE series", CASP8 Proceedings 2008, 14-15.

Input: Protein amino acid sequence

POODLE-I is an integrated variant of other flavors of POODLE (-S and -L for short/long regions of disorder and -W for proteins that are mostly disordered) and several other tools like Psipred, JNet etc. It employs a rather involved workflow.

IUPRED

IUPRED is a software for the prediction of intrinsically unstructured regions in proteins. It was published in 2005 by Zsuzsanna Dosztányi, Veronika Csizmók, Péter Tompa and István Simon.

Reference: IUPred: web server for the prediction of intrinsically unstructured regions of proteins based on estimated energy content Zsuzsanna Dosztányi, Veronika Csizmók, Péter Tompa and István Simon, Bioinformatics (2005) 21, 3433-3434.

IUPRED predicts disordered regions by estimating the capacity of the amino acid chain to form stabilizing contacts. The underlying assumption is that proteins intrinsically unable to do so have distinct sequences that can be identified via their unfavorable energy values. To this end a 20x20 predictor matrix was calculated from a set of globular proteins with known structure. IUPRED uses this matrix to derive a tendency to be intrinsically unstructured from the amino acid composition alone.

Input: An amino acid sequence.

IUPRED comes in three flavors: Long Disorder, which specializes in finding long stretches of disorder, Short Disorder, which does the same for short stretches of disorder, and structured regions, which predicts regions lacking disorder.

Long Disorder

Structured Regions

Aspa iupred3.png

IUPRED predicts one structured region comprised of the whole input sequence.


Results

IUPRED predicts no significant disorder in Aspartoacyclase. The disorder tendency stays below 0.5 in all cases (except for short stretches of about 3-5 residues at each end of the sequence in short disorder mode, which are negligible) and the structured regions mode predicts one continuous structured region spanning all of the protein sequence. This makes sense when looking at the 3D structure: Aspartoacyclase is a rather densely packed globular structure, which according to the assumptions that IUPRED makes has a strong tendency to form many inter-residue contacts and to stabilize itself thereby, markedly reducing the tendency for disorder in the process.

Meta-Disorder

Meta-Disorder, as the name implies, employs a set of so-called orthogonal disorder predictors in order to combine their strengths and mitigate their weak points. It was published in 2009 by Avner Schlessinger, Marco Punta, Guy Yachdav, Laszlo Kajan and Burkhard Rost.

Reference: Paper

As with the previous methods, Meta-Disorder predicts disorder from the amino acid sequence alone; results from the predictors IUPRED, DISOPRED, NORSnet and Ucon are molded into one final result using a neural network.

Key for output
----------------
Number - residue number
Residue - amino-acid type
NORSnet - raw score by NORSnet (prediction of unstructured loops)
NORS2st - two-state prediction by NORSnet; D=disordered
PROFbval - raw score by PROFbval (prediction of residue flexibility from sequence)
Bval2st - two-state prediction by PROFbval
Ucon - raw score by Ucon (prediction of protein disorder using predicted internal contacts)
Ucon2st - two-state prediction by Ucon
MD - raw score by MD (prediction of protein disorder using orthogonal sources)
MD_rel - reliability of the prediction by MD; values range from 0-9. 9=strong prediction
MD2st - two-state prediction by MD


The last column indicates whether or not disorder was predicted at the current position. Meta-Disorder predicts a total of four disorder positions, which are not significant. This coincides with the predictions of the other programs employed previously - not alltogether surprising, since Meta-Disorder draws its predictions from two of them.

Prediction of transmembrane alpha-helices and signal peptides

The results of this task are unequivocal: Aspartoacyclase does not contain any transmembrane regions. From a biological point of view this was to be expected, as Aspartoacyclase is known to be located in the cytosol.

TMHMM

Since the VM version could not be made to work, we used the server at http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/TMHMM/.

TMHMM uses a hidden markov model to predict transmembrane helices in proteins. It was published in 1998 by E. L.L. Sonnhammer, G. von Heijne, and A. Krogh.

Reference: Original paper

The hidden markov model used by TMHMM models the biological structure with states for helix turns, helix caps and loops on either side of the membrane, which are specially designed to model membrane insertion, too. The HMM probabilities were estimated both by using a maximum likelihood method and a discriminative method.

Results for Aspartoacyclase very clearly show absence of any sort of transmembrane structure, which is biologically sound.

Phobius & PolyPhobius

Phobius is a program for the prediction of transmembrane region with special emphasis on reducing confusion with signal peptides. It was published in 2005 by Käll L, Krogh A, Sonnhammer EL.

Reference: Paper

Signal peptides and transmembrane proteins share a great deal of similarity and are often confused by predictors for either class; Phobius aims to predict both and to discriminate between them. It employs a hidden markov model to do this, modelling the different sequence regions pertaining to either class.

Input: An amino acid sequence.

Again, neither signal nor transmembrane regions were detected in Aspartoacyclase.

OCTOPUS & SPOCTOPUS

OCTOPUS uses a combination of hidden markov models and neural networks to predict transmembrane regions. It was published in 2004 by Käll L, Krogh A, Sonnhammer EL.

Reference: Original paper

OCROPUS first creates a sequence profile by running BLAST with the input sequence. Neural networks are used to subsequently predict the propensity for each residue to be located in a transmembrane region or in certain structure patterns on either side of the membrane. The resulting propensities are then fed to a hidden markov model, which calculates the most likely topology.

SPOCTOPUS extends OCTOPUS with a preprocessor that uses a neural network to assess the probability that the first 70 residues of the input sequence contain a signal peptide sequence. If this scores high enough, a hidden markov model is used to ascertain the exact offset of the signal region.

No transmembrane/signal regions were predicted for Aspartoacyclase.

SignalP

SignalP is a method for the detection of signal peptides. It was first published in 1997 by Henrik Nielsen, Jacob Engelbrecht, Søren Brunak and Gunnar von Heijne.

Reference: Original paper, current version

SignalP comes in two flavours: One using a neural network, the other using a hidden markov model. It supports discriminating between cleaved and uncleaved signal peptides and supports both prokaryotic and eukaryotic input.

Input: A protein sequence.

Neither flavour detected any signal sequence in Aspartoacyclase.

TargetP

TargetP is a software for the prediction of the cellular location of certain proteins, based on location signals in their sequence. It was published in 2000 by Olof Emanuelsson1, Henrik Nielsen2, Søren Brunak2 and Gunnar von Heijne1.

Reference: Predicting subcellular localization of proteins based on their N-terminal amino acid sequence. Olof Emanuelsson1, Henrik Nielsen2, Søren Brunak2 and Gunnar von Heijne1. J. Mol. Biol., 300: 1005-1016, 2000.

TargetP confines its analysis to the N-terminal part of the sequence, it can discriminate between proteins destined for either mitochondrion, chloroplast (plants only, for obvious reasons), the secretory pathway or another location.

The prediction for Aspartoacyclase was "other location", which is plausible, as the enzyme is known to reside in the cytosol.

Analysis

BACR_HALSA

TM Prediction: TMHMM predicts one helix less than the other tools (ca. 216-237); other than that, all methods consent on 7 TM helices with insignificant differences. The PDB structure shows that this is correct.

Signalpeptid: SignalP predicts it to be a signal peptide (NN mode) and a signal anchor (HMM mode); according to the information we found on the protein, both predictions are faulty.

Target prediction: TargetP predicted this protein to be located in the secretory pathway and to be a signal peptide; this is not correct.

RET4_HUMAN

TM Prediction: Only Octopus predicts a TM helix; this is a mis-identified signal sequence. The other programs predict no TM helices, which is correct.

Signal peptide prediction: Phobius predicts it to be a signal peptide; so do Spoctopus, and SignalP, with the cleaving site at position 18. According to Uniprot, this is correct.

Target prediction: TargetP predicted this protein to be a signal peptide in the secretory pathway; this is correct.

INSL5_HUMAN

TM Prediction: Only Octopus predicts a transmembrane element, which is a mis-identified signal sequence.

Signal peptide prediction: Phobius predicts a signal sequence with cleaving site at 22; Spoctopus predicts the cleaving site at 23; SignalP predicts it to be between 22 and 23.

Target prediction: TargetP predicted this protein to be a signal peptide in the secretory pathway; this is correct.

LAMP1_HUMAN

TM Prediction: TMHMM detects two TM helices; so does Octopus. One TM helix is detected as a signal sequence by Spoctopus and Phobius.

Signal peptide prediction: Phobius, Spoctopus and SignalP find a signal sequence with cleaving site at 28-29. This is correct, according to Uniprot.

Target prediction: TargetP predicted this protein to be a signal peptide in the secretory pathway; since it is membrane-located, this is not correct.

A4_HUMAN

TM Prediction: One TM helix from 701 to 723 predicted by all programms (end is 722 in case of Octopus and Spoctopus). One short reentrant sequence predicted by Octopus, which is a mis-identified signal sequence.

Signal peptide prediction: Spoctopus, SignalP and Phobius all report a signal sequence with cleaving site at 17-19. According to Uniprot, this is correct.

Target prediction: TargetP predicted this protein to be a signal peptide in the secretory pathway; this is wrong, as it is membrane-associated.

Prediction of GO terms

GOPET

GOPET is a tool aimed at automatically assigning Gene Ontology terms to proteins. It was published in 2006 by Arunachalam Vinayagam, Coral del Val, Falk Schubert, Roland Eils, Karl-Heinz Glatting, Sándor Suhai and Rainer König.

Reference: Paper

The input sequence is first BLASTed against a database of proteins with known GO terms; a support vector machine is then used to discriminate between correct and false terms.

Results for Aspartoacyclase, all coinciding nicely with the current knowledge on the enzyme:

GOid Aspect Confidence GO Term
GO:0016787 F 96% hydrolase activity
GO:0004046 F 82% aminoacyclase activity
GO:0019807 F 82% aspartoacyclase activity
GO:0016788 F 81% hydrolase activity acting on ester bonds

Pfam

PFAM is a large database of protein functions. It was established in 1998 at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.

It is comprised of two database: Pfam-A, a manually curated high-quality database with a limited number of entries, and the much larger, automatically curated, Pfam-B.

Reference: The Pfam protein families database: R.D. Finn, J. Mistry, J. Tate, P. Coggill, A. Heger, J.E. Pollington, O.L. Gavin, P. Gunesekaran, G. Ceric, K. Forslund, L. Holm, E.L. Sonnhammer, S.R. Eddy, A. Bateman
