EC Rigor
EC Rigor provides a stricter enzyme annotation signal than broad enzyme-class triage.
What It Does
The oracle helps prioritize more specific enzyme-function hypotheses from sequence.
Why It Matters
Specific enzyme annotation is useful for pathway reconstruction, enzyme discovery, and experimental design, but false positives can be costly. A stricter readout helps users separate broad hints from candidates worth closer review.
Intended Use
Use EC Rigor when you need a more conservative enzyme-function hypothesis and are prepared to confirm it with orthogonal evidence.
Limitations
EC Rigor does not certify catalytic activity or substrate identity. Confirm with sequence search, active-site analysis, structural context, literature review, and biochemical assays.
Try EC Rigor
