Localization Prediction for Eukaryotes - TargetP

• Chloroplast: sequence contains a chloroplast transit peptide
• Mitochondrion: sequence contains a mitochondrial targeting peptide
• Secretory pathway: sequence contains a signal peptide
• other Location: none of the N-terminal presequences could be found

If the prediction results in other Location, please click on the link Check for transm. helices in the result table. Otherwise the protein could be cytoplasmic, nuclear or peroxisomal. Our current prediction cannot distinguish between these three localizations. Please consult a specific prediction server for nuclear, cytoplasmic or peroxisomal localization.

The reliability class ranges from 1 (very reliable) to 5 (not reliable). It is a measure of the size of the difference between the highest and the second highest output scores.
