Background We present an overview of bacterial non-classical secretion and a prediction
method for identification of proteins following signal peptide independent secretion …

Microbial genes that are “novel”(no detectable homologs in other species) have become of
increasing interest as environmental sampling suggests that there are many more such …

Subcellular location of a protein is one of the key functional characters as proteins must be
localized correctly at the subcellular level to have normal biological function. In this paper, a …

The Gram-negative pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa encodes multiple protein export
systems, the substrates of which contain export signals such as N-terminal signal peptides …

Background The large gap between the number of protein sequences in databases and the
number of functionally characterized proteins calls for the development of a fast …

Background Beta-barrel transmembrane (bbtm) proteins are a functionally important and
diverse group of proteins expressed in the outer membranes of bacteria (both gram negative …

Background Identification of a bacterial protein's subcellular localization (SCL) is important
for genome annotation, function prediction and drug or vaccine target identification …

Anabaena is a model to analyze the evolutionary development of plastids, cell
differentiation, and the regulation of nitrogen fixation. Thereby, the outer membrane …

Proteomic analysis of bacterial pathogens isolated from in vivo sources, such as infected
tissues, provides many challenges not the least of which is the limited quantity of sample …

Genomic sequencing of the methanotrophic bacterium, Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath),
revealed an open reading frame (MCA2590) immediately upstream of the previously …
