SBP-SITA: A sequence-based prediction tools for S-itaconation

As a recently-reported post-translational modification, S-itaconation plays an important role in inflammation suppression. In order to understand its regulatory mechanism in many life activities, the essential step is the recognition of S-itaconation. However, it is difficult to identify S-itaconation in the proteome for the high cost, which limits further investigation. In this study, we constructed an ensemble algorithm based on Soft Voting Classifier. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) value 0.73 for ensemble model. Accordingly, we constructed the on-line prediction tool dubbed SBP-SITA for easily identifying Cystine sites. SBP-SITA is available at http://www.bioinfogo.org/sbp-sita.
