The CNN-T4SE is a tool that can be run in windows and linux operating systems. It is used to identify effector proteins through the amino acid sequence, evolutionary information in the form of a position-specific scoring matrix, secondary structure and solvent accessibility information of the proteins. The following steps will help you to use CNN-T4SE to identify effectors.

STEP-1: Prepare the input files of different prediction methods

PSSSA: To use PSSSA Encoding, the studied amino acid sequence(s) should be transferred to the sequences of "secondary structure" and "solvent accessibility" using the protein structure prediction tool SCRATCH , a local version of SCRATCH is also provided HERE

Onehot: The one-hot encoding procedure is integrated in the Software, just use the FASTA format sequence file as the input

PSSM: The PSSM files could be generated through a web tool POSSUM

An sample data of those three kinds of input files can be download HERE

STEP-2: Annotate Novel T4SE Protein(s) Using CNN-T4SE
