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.
