Protein subcellular localization prediction

Protein subcellular localization prediction involves determining the specific location or compartment within a cell where a protein is likely to function. This is important for understanding the roles of proteins in various biological processes, as the localization often influences a protein's function and interactions. Cells are organized into various compartments, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, cytoplasm, and plasma membrane, among others.
