Abstract: | Abstract Membrane proteins can be classified among the following five types: (1) type I membrane protein. (2) type II membrane protein. (3) multipass transmembrane proteins. (4) lipid chain- anchored membrane proteins, and (5) GPI-anchored membrane proteins. T. Kohonen's self-organization model which is a typical neural network is applied for predicting the type of a given membrane protein based on its amino acid composition. As a result, the high rates of self-consistency (94.80%) and cross-validation (77.76%), and stronger fault-tolerant ability were obtained. |
