In the current study, we address the challenge of sequence-based discovery of proteolytic sites in secreted proteins using machine learning.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Results: The results revealed that only half of the extracellular proteolytic sites are currently annotated, leaving over 3600 unannotated ones. Furthermore, we have found that only 6% of the unannotated sites are similar to known proteolytic sites, whereas the remaining 94% do not share significant similarity with any annotated proteolytic site. The computational challenges in these two cases are very different. While the precision in detecting the former group is close to perfect, only a mere 22% of the latter group were detected with a precision of 80%. The applicability of the classifier is demonstrated through members of the FGF family, in which we verified the conservation of physiologically-relevant proteolytic sites in homologous proteins.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Contact: \u00a0kliger@compugen.co.il; yossef.kliger@gmail.com<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Supplementary information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btn084","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,3,6]],"date-time":"2008-03-06T01:25:31Z","timestamp":1204766731000},"page":"1049-1055","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Predicting proteolytic sites in extracellular proteins: only halfway there"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Yossef","family":"Kliger","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Compugen Ltd, 72 Pinchas Rosen, Tel Aviv 69512 and 2The Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Eyal","family":"Gofer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Compugen Ltd, 72 Pinchas Rosen, Tel Aviv 69512 and 2The Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Assaf","family":"Wool","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Compugen Ltd, 72 Pinchas Rosen, Tel Aviv 69512 and 2The Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amir","family":"Toporik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Compugen Ltd, 72 Pinchas Rosen, Tel Aviv 69512 and 2The Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Avihay","family":"Apatoff","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Compugen Ltd, 72 Pinchas Rosen, Tel Aviv 69512 and 2The Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel"},{"name":"1 Compugen Ltd, 72 Pinchas Rosen, Tel Aviv 69512 and 2The Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Moshe","family":"Olshansky","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Compugen Ltd, 72 Pinchas Rosen, Tel Aviv 69512 and 2The Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,3,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023020210010480700_B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"311","DOI":"10.1074\/mcp.M300127-MCP200","article-title":"The human plasma proteome: a nonredundant list developed by combination of four separate sources","volume":"3","author":"Anderson","year":"2004","journal-title":"Mol.
