Abstract EN
Protein fold classification plays an important role in both protein functional analysis and drug design.
The number of proteins in PDB is very large, but only a very small part is categorized and stored in the SCOPe database.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop an efficient method for protein fold classification.
In recent years, a variety of classification methods have been used in many protein fold classification studies.
In this study, we propose a novel classification method called proFold.
We import protein tertiary structure in the period of feature extraction and employ a novel ensemble strategy in the period of classifier training.
Compared with existing similar ensemble classifiers using the same widely used dataset (DD-dataset), proFold achieves 76.2% overall accuracy.
Another two commonly used datasets, EDD-dataset and TG-dataset, are also tested, of which the accuracies are 93.2% and 94.3%, higher than the existing methods.
ProFold is available to the public as a web-server.
