Summary: Meta-DP, a domain prediction meta-server provides a simple interface to predict domains in a given protein sequence using a number of domain prediction methods. The Meta-DP is a convenient resource because through accessing a single site, users automatically obtain the results of the various domain prediction methods along with a consensus prediction. The Meta-DP is currently coupled to 10 domain prediction servers and can be extended to include any number of methods. Meta-DP can thus become a centralized repository of available methods. Meta-DP was also used to evaluate the performance of 13 domain prediction methods in the context of CAFASP-DP.

Availability: The Meta-DP server is freely available at http://meta-dp.bioinformatics.buffalo.edu and the CAFASP-DP evaluation results are available at http://cafasp4.bioinformatics.buffalo.edu/dp/update.html
