+This is package is a Galaxy workflow for the identification of candidate
+secreted proteins from a given protein FASTA file.
+
+It runs SignalP v3.0 (Bendtsen et al. 2004) and selects only proteins with a
+strong predicted signal peptide, and then runs TMHMM v2.0 (Krogh et al. 2001)
+on those, and selects only proteins without a predicted trans-membrane helix.
+This workflow was used in Kikuchi et al (2001), and is a simplification of
+the candidate effector protocol described in Jones et al (2009).
+
+See http://www.galaxyproject.org for information about the Galaxy Project.

+Availability
+============
+
+This workflow is available to download and/or install from the main
+Galaxy Tool Shed:
+
+http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/secreted_protein_workflow
+
+Test releases (which should not normally be used) are on the Test Tool Shed:
+
+http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/secreted_protein_workflow
+
+Development is being done on github here:
+
+https://github.com/peterjc/picobio/tree/master/galaxy_workflows/secreted_protein_workflow
+
+
+Dependencies
+============
+
+These dependencies should be resolved automatically via the Galaxy Tool Shed:
+
+* http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/tmhmm_and_signalp
+* http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/seq_filter_by_id
+
+However, at the time of writing those Galaxy tools have their own
+dependencies required for this workflow which require manual
+installation (SignalP v3.0 and TMHMM v2.0).
