| Abstract | The mucin-type O-glycosylation of a protein is an important type of protein post-translational modification. This process is mediated by a family of UDP-GalNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferases which transfer the N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) to the serine or threonine residues with unknown specificity. In order to determine the glycosylation sites of a given protein, we present a two-staged prediction method here, which first determines whether a protein is a glycoprotein, and then determines the glycosylation sites of a protein that has been predicted to be glycosylated in the first stage. In the first stage, a protein is encoded by the protein families in PFAM, which is a collective annotated database of classified protein families; then it is predicted by a predictor trained by the training set. In the second stage, nonapeptides of the predicted mucin-type glycoproteins, with serine or threonine residues at their fifth sites, are represented by indices in AAIndex. Then, it is predicted whether the nonapeptides are attached by GalNAc by a predictor, which is constructed with features selected by feature selection methods [Maximum Relevance Minimum Redundancy (mRMR) method and Incremental Feature Selection method]. The prediction accuracy of the first stage is 94.9% validated by Leave-One-Out validation method; the prediction accuracy of the second stage is 99.4%. These results show that this method is valuable to study the mucin-type O-glycosylation. The analysis of the features used to construct the predictor of the second stage confirms the previously obtained results from other groups. The residues at position −1 and +3 have great impact on the prediction. Among other amino acid indices, the indices about alpha and turn propensities and indices about hydrophobicity of the residues in nonapeptide also influence the recognition of the GalNAc transferases.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
