A database for allergenic proteins and tools for allergenicity prediction.
Journal Title: Bioinformation - Year 2009, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
The AllergenPro database has developed a web-based system that will provide information about allergen in microbes, animals and plants. The database has three major parts and functions:(i) database list; (ii) allergen search; and (iii) allergenicity prediction. The database contains 2,434 allergens related information readily available in the database such as on allergens in rice microbes (712 records), animals (617 records) and plants (1,105 records). Furthermore, this database provides bioinformatics tools for allergenicity prediction. Users can search for specific allergens by various methods and can run tools for allergenicity prediction using three different methods. AVAILABILITY: The database is available for free at http://www.niab.go.kr/nabic/
