SpiderP

SpiderP predicts the location (or absence) of propeptides in spider toxins. The program first runs SignalP to search for signal peptides and then looks for propeptides in the remaining sequence using a support vector machine (SVM) algorithm. The program outputs any predicted signal and propeptide sequences as well as the predicted mature peptide region. If a propeptide is present, the residue number that is N-terminal to the propeptide cleavage site will also be reported.

Note: Processing runs in the background and may take a few moments to complete. You can monitor the progress on this page, and results will be displayed automatically when ready.

All training and testing data are available for download here.

Please input your protein sequence below (in FASTA format). You can include a FASTA header (starting with >) or just the sequence. Processing will run in the background - you'll see a status indicator and results will appear automatically when complete.
