the present study was undertaken to investigate the role of banana extract (be) on synchronous plantlet formation from seeds of dendrobium lituiflorum lindl. the seedlings formed on modified knudson c (kc) medium supplemented with 20% (v/v) be had significantly high fresh and dry weights. morphologically uniform plantlets with elongated leaves and well developed roots were formed on kc medium w...

This study presents an allergenic protein prediction system that appears to be capable of producing high sensitivity and specificity. The proposed system is based on support vector machine (SVM) using evolutionary information in the form of an amino acid position specific scoring matrix (PSSM). The performance of this system is assessed by a 10-fold cross-validation experiment using a dataset c...

Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) are ice-binding proteins. Accurate identification of new AFPs is important in understanding ice-protein interactions and creating novel ice-binding domains in other proteins. In this paper, an accurate method, called AFP_PSSM, has been developed for predicting antifreeze proteins using a support vector machine (SVM) and position specific scoring matrix (PSSM) profiles...
