Abstract
Protein phosphorylation, one of the main protein post-translational modifications, is required for regulating various life activities. Kinases and phosphatases that regulate protein phosphorylation in humans have been targeted to treat various diseases, particularly cancer. High-throughput experimental methods to discover protein phosphosites are laborious and time-consuming. The burgeoning databases and predictors provide essential infrastructure to the research community. To date, >60 publicly available phosphorylation databases and predictors each have been developed. In this review, we have comprehensively summarized the status and applicability of major online phosphorylation databases and predictors, thereby helping researchers rapidly select tools that are most suitable for their projects. Moreover, the organizational strategies and limitations of these databases and predictors have been highlighted, which may facilitate the development of better protein phosphorylation predictors in silico.
