Successful prediction of protein homo-oligomers directly from primary sequence is very beneficial to understand their protein function. In this paper, a total of 14 238 homo-oligomeric protein sequences are predicted by IB1 algorithm. 10-fold cross-validation test is applied to test the predictive capability of the proposed method. The predictive results show that overall prediction accuracy is 90.46%, which is at least 9% higher than that of previous results; furthermore,the sensitivity and Matthew＇s correlation coefficient for each class of homo-oligomers are also improved significantly. The results show that IB1 algorithm is effective and feasible,and very suitable for predicting protein homo-oligomer types.展开更多
