I have entire protein sequences of a particular fungal species (Trichophyton). I need to predict/identify virulence factors from the protein sequences. Hence, can anybody suggest me tool/pipeline to do the same.
Thanks in advance.
Compile a set of known virulence factor sequences from other fungal species, and look for orthologs (e.g., using sequence search)?
I don't know of any specific databases for reference sequences, but this came up from a quick search. For the search itself, you could use

since you're dealing with protein-protein searches.Thank you @Dunois
