Title: Predicting protein secondary structure and solvent accessibility with an improved multiple linear regression method. Author: Qin S, He Y, Pan XM. Journal: Proteins; 2005 Nov 15; 61(3):473-80. PubMed ID: 16152601. Abstract: We have improved the multiple linear regression (MLR) algorithm for protein secondary structure prediction by combining it with the evolutionary information provided by multiple sequence alignment of PSI-BLAST. On the CB513 dataset, the three states average overall per-residue accuracy, Q(3), reached 76.4%, while segment overlap accuracy, SOV99, reached 73.2%, using a rigorous jackknife procedure and the strictest reduction of eight states DSSP definition to three states. This represents an improvement of approximately 5% on overall per-residue accuracy compared with previous work. The relative solvent accessibility prediction also benefited from this combination of methods. The system achieved 77.7% average jackknifed accuracy for two states prediction based on a 25% relative solvent accessibility mode, with a Mathews' correlation coefficient of 0.548.
