Positive independent dataset

1. The positive independent dataset consists of total 187 epitopes (128 IgE epitopes obtained from structural database of allergenic proteins (SDAP) and 59 epitopes obtained from Bcipep database), in which length of the epitopes were not fixed and none of these epitopes were used in the training or testing of ABCpred algorithm.
2. This dataset consists of 109 epitopes having less than 16 residues. In order to create a pattern of 16 residues we added equal number of residues on both terminals of these epitopes from its original sequence. The 16 mer positive independent dataset are available <Click here> .
3. The other 78 epitopes used were of usual length (greater than 16mer) as obtained from these databases are available <Click here>.
