| Abstract: | We have developed a deductive database system PACADE for analyzing3-D and secondary structures of protein. The PA CADE systemconsists of a relational database created from Protein DataBank and a deductive engine DEE based on logic programming.It has the following features: (1) The system has an inferencemechanism. This means by which users can easily write and checkbiological hypotheses using logical and declarative rules insteadof procedural programs. (2) The relational database of the PACADE system stores data on bath 3-D and secondwy structuresof protein. The integration of this two level structure makesfeasible an abstract representation of the protein structure.We describe herein the design, functions, and implementationof this PACADE system. |
