SNPs&GO
Predicting disease-related SNPs using GO terms


SNPs&GO is an algorithm developed in the Laboratory of Biocomputing at the University of Bologna directed by Prof Rita Casadio. This page links to a web server implementation of SNPs&GO hosted by a server of the Structural Bioinformatics Unit at the University of Balearic Islands (UIB).

SNPs&GO is an accurate method that, starting from a protein sequence, can predict whether a mutation is disease related or not by exploiting the protein functional annotation. SNPs&GO collects in unique framework information derived from protein sequence,evolutionary information, and function as encoded in the Gene Ontology terms, and outperforms other available predictive methods.
