Identification of Phage Receptor-Binding Protein Sequences with Hidden Markov Models and an Extreme Gradient Boosting Classifier

Receptor-binding proteins (RBPs) of bacteriophages initiate the infection of their corresponding bacterial host and act as the primary determinant for host specificity. The ever-increasing amount of sequence data enables the development of predictive models for the automated identification of RBP se...
