How To Fix norsnet: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu norsnet is provided by norsnet package.

norsnet is:

NORSnet can distinguish between very long contiguous segments with non-regular secondary structure (NORS regions) and well-folded proteins.

NORSnet was trained on predicted information rather than on experimental data. This allows NORSnet to reach into regions in sequence space that are not covered by specialized disorder predictors. One disadvantage of this approach is that it is not optimal for the identification of the “average” disordered region.

NORSnet takes the following input, further described on norsnet(1):

  • a protein sequence in a FASTA file
  • secondary structure and solvent accessibility prediction by prof(1)
  • an HSSP file
  • flexible/rigid residues prediction by profbval(1)

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install norsnet

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install norsnet.

sudo apt -y install norsnet

sudo aptitude install norsnet
