Prediction of physical properties

2. Physical properties

You can predict various physical properties of a protein based on its primary sequence.

1. Go to the ProtParam home page.

2. Copy the query sequence and paste it into the window, then press the 'Compute parameters' button.

3. You will see the results of the parameters calculation:

The result report has a lot of useful parameters predicted for the query sequence. e.g. Its isoelectric point (pI) of the protein is predicted to be 9.80. Is it a reasonable value when you take the biological function of this protein into account?
