Abstract
BACKGROUND: Evidence have increasingly indicated that for human disease, cell metabolism are deeply associated with proteins. Structural mutations and dysregulations of these proteins contribute to the development of the complex disease. Free radicals are unstable molecules that seek for electrons from the surrounding atoms for stability. Once a free radical binds to an atom in the body, a chain reaction occurs, which causes damage to cells and DNA. An antioxidant protein is a substance that protects cells from free radical damage. Accurate identification of antioxidant proteins is important for understanding their role in delaying aging and preventing and treating related diseases. Therefore, computational methods to identify antioxidant proteins have become an effective prior-pinpointing approach to experimental verification.
