For information on re-use, please refer to the publisher’s terms and conditions. abstract: SUMMARY: The Rab family of small GTPases regulates and provides specificity to the endomembrane trafficking system; each Rab subfamily is associated with specific pathways. Thus, characterization of Rab repertoires provides functional information about organisms and evolution of the eukaryotic cell. Yet, the complex structure of the Rab family limits the application of existing methods for protein classification. Here, we present a major redesign of the Rabifier, a bioinformatic pipeline for detection and classification of Rab GTPases. It is more accurate, significantly faster than the original version and is now open source, both the code and the data, allowing for community participation. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: Rabifier and RabDB are freely available through the web at http://rabdb.org. The Rabifier package can be downloaded from the Python Package Index at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/rabifier, the source code is available at Github https://github.com/evocell/rabifier. date: 2017-02-15 date_type: published publisher: OXFORD UNIV PRESS official_url: https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/btw654 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green article_type_text: Article verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1285858 doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btw654 lyricists_name: Diekmann, Yoan lyricists_id: YDIEK55 actors_name: Flynn, Bernadette actors_id: BFFLY94 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Bioinformatics volume: 33 number: 4 pagerange: 568-570 pages: 3 issn: 1460-2059 citation: Surkont, J; Diekmann, Y; Pereira-Leal, JB; (2017) Rabifier2: an improved bioinformatic classifier of Rab GTPases.
