Motivation: Motivated by the abundance, importance and unique functionality of zinc, both biologically and physiologically, we have developed an improved method for the prediction of zinc-binding sites in proteins from their amino acid sequences. Results: By combining support vector machine (SVM) and homology-based predictions, our method predicts zinc-binding Cys, His, Asp and Glu with 75% precision (86% for Cys and His only) at 50% recall according to a 5-fold cross-validation on a non-redundant set of protein chains from the Protein Data Bank (PDB) (2727 chains, 235 of which bind zinc). Consequently, our method predicts zinc-binding Cys and His with 10% higher precision at different recall levels compared to a recently published method when tested on the same dataset.
