PMUT – Pathogenic mutation prediction
Primary tabs
Website:
Pmut is a software aimed at the annotation and prediction of pathological mutations, and in particular at answering the following question: given a mutation happening at a specific location in a protein sequence, can we say whether it will be pathological (that is, a mutation that can lead to disease for the carrier) or non-pathological/neutral (no effect on the carrier's health)? Pmut is based on the use of different kinds of sequence information to label mutations, and neural networks to process this information (Ferrer-Costa et al., 2004). It provides a very simple output: a yes/no answer and a reliability index.
