dRHP-PseRA: detecting remote homology proteins using profile-based pseudo protein sequence and rank aggregation

  We have established a web-server for the dRHP-PseRA predictor. For the convenience of the vast majority of experimental scientists, below let us give a step-by-step guide on how to use the web-server to get their desired results without the need to follow the complicated mathematic equations.

  Step 1. Open the web-server by clicking the link at http://bliulab.net/dRHP-PseRA/ and you will see its top page. Click on the ReadMe button to see a brief introduction about the server.

  Step 2. You can directly enter the query protein sequences into the input box, or use the Browse button to upload them via a file. All the input sequences should be in the FASTA format. A sequence in FASTA format consists of a single initial line beginning with the symbol ">" in the first column, followed by lines of sequence data in which nucleotides are represented using single-letter codes. Except for the mandatory symbol ">", all the other characters in the single initial line are optional and only used for the purpose of identification and description. The sequence ends if another line starting with the symbol ">" appears; this indicates the start of another sequence. Example sequences in FASTA format can be seen by clicking on the Example button.

  Step 3. Click on the Submit button to see the predicted results. For each query protein, its top ten most humongous proteins detected by dRHP-PseRA will be shown in a table, and the full ranking list can be accessed by clicking the Download button.
