 | | In the case of class I SH3 domains, NNs' results are controversial: the correlation is higher than the one obtained with PSSMs in three cases (Rvs167, Sho1, Yfr024), and lower in the three remaining cases (Boi1, Myo5, Ysc84). |
 | | Boi2 domain was excluded from the analysis because of the scarcity of positive binding peptides (only six, see Table 3), which makes the use of both a PSSM and a neural network unreliable. |
 | | For each SH3 domain considered, a PSSM was obtained from the alignment of the training set binders, and tested on the peptides of the corresponding test set. |
