A new method for predicting signal sequence cleavage sites
Year: 1986
Type: article
Abstract: A new method for identifying secretory signal sequences and for predicting the site of cleavage between a signal sequence and the mature exported protein is described. The predictive accuracy is estimated to be around 75-80% for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins.
