What is iNuLoC
iNuLoC is a platform developed for understanding the nuclear location codes in proteins. We developed a deep learning based model to predict the nuclear location proteins, discovered complex biological rules to decipher protein nuclear location potential. iNuLoC provided the prediction results of pNuLoC and integrated several well-known database including UniProt, NLSdb, SeqNLS, ValidNESs and NESbase to display known and candidate NLSs/NESs in the proteins, which might provide helpful information for the research of protein nuclear location.

Output result explanation
Potential nuclear location probability
This table contains five column, including FASTA title ID, Nuclear location probability, Confidence level, Possible regions.

Potential nuclear location regions
Based on pNuLoC, we calculated the nuclear location probability trajectory score for each site.

Sequence and structure properties
The disorder values are calculated by IUPred. The surface accessibility and secondary structure information are predicted by NetSurfP. The polar, charge and hydropathy information were retrived from AAindex.
