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).
