Automated protein-family classification based on hidden Markov models

The aim of the project presented in this paper was to investigate the possibility toautomatically sub-classify the superfamily of Short-chain Dehydrogenase/Reductases (SDR).This was done based on an algorithm previously designed to sub-classify the superfamily ofMedium-chain Dehydrogenase/Reductases (MDR). While the SDR-family is interesting andimportant to sub-classify there was also a focus on making the process as automatic aspossible so that future families also can be classified using the same methods.To validate the results generated it was compared to previous sub-classifications done on theSDR-family. The results proved promising and the work conducted here can be seen as a goodinitial part of a more comprehensive full investigation
