Comparative analysis of the GPCRtm performance regarding general-purpose substitution matrices in BLASTP searches of one hundred GPCR protein queries against the PDB database
Test matrix | No. of queries GPCRtm better | No. of queries GPCRtm worst | No. of queries GPCRtm the same | p-value |
---|---|---|---|---|
JTTtm | 21 | 0 | 79 | <0.001** |
PHAT | 8 | 0 | 92 | 0.008* |
BLOSUM62 | 9 | 1 | 90 | 0.021* |
BLOSUM45 | 12 | 1 | 87 | 0.003* |
p-values were calculated by McNemar’s test (* significant differences at α = 0.05, ** significant differences at α = 0.001)
