- Program may resolve in an error if a large .fasta file is sent for prediction when images or graphics are desired. Please only use the table display when using large predictions. (>100 sequences)
- A standalone of the program is available here.
- Notice: NLStradamus is not a predictor of nuclear proteins; although better than random, it is a very poor classifier of nuclear proteins. Comparative approaches should be used for this problem. NLStradamus predicts NLSs in nuclear proteins that are transported by the import machinery of the cell.
