Abstract:Protein sequences encode the information necessary for function and folding, however accessing it is not straightforward. Unluckily, although structure and function are tightly linked, the prediction of how specific amino acids contribute to these features is still considerably impaired. Here, we developed PhISCO, Phenotype Inference from Sequence COmparisons, a simple algorithm that finds positions associated with any quantitative phenotype and predicts their values. From a few hundred sequences from four dif… Show more
