FEATURE is a computational method to recognize functional and structural sites for automatic protein function prediction. By profiling physicochemical properties around residues, FEATURE can characterize and predict functional and structural sites in 3D protein structures in a high-throughput manner. Despite its effectiveness, it has been challenging to apply FEATURE to novel protein data due to limited customization support. To address this problem, we thoroughly analyze the internal modules of FEATURE and propose a methodology to customize FEATURE so that it can be used for new protein data for automatic functional annotations.
