§ It is predicted as a peptide that does not exhibit antimicrobial activity. The prediction level is less than 0.5. §§ It is predicted as a peptide with antimicrobial activity. The prediction level is over than 0.5. §§§ For calculations, sarcosine (Sar) was replaced by analogs similar in properties and structure: alanine (A) and proline (P). §§§§ For calculations, norlecine (Nle) was replaced by analogs of similar properties and structure: methionine (M) and leucine (L). Antimicrobial activity was predicted using algorithms: RF is a random forest, SVM is a support vector machine, ANN is an artificial neural network, DA is a discriminant analysis, RF and n-gramms is a random forest based on amino acid motifs, DNN is deep neural network.
