The CluSTr database (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/clustr/) offers an automatic classification of SWISS-PROT+TrEMBL proteins into groups of related proteins. The clustering is based on analysis of all pair-wise sequence comparisons between proteins using the Smith-Waterman algorithm. The analysis, carried out on different levels of protein similarity, yields a hierarchical organization of clusters. Information about domain content of the clustered proteins is provided via the InterPro resource. The introduced InterPro 'condensed graphical view' simplifies the visual analysis of represented domain architectures. Integrated applications allow users to visualize and edit multiple alignments and build sequence divergence trees. Links to the relevant structural data in Protein Data Bank (PDB) and Homology derived Secondary Structure of Proteins (HSSP) are also provided. 相似文献

The CluSTr (Clusters of SWISS-PROT and TrEMBL proteins) database offers an automatic classification of SWISS-PROT and TrEMBL proteins into groups of related proteins. The clustering is based on analysis of all pairwise comparisons between protein sequences. Analysis has been carried out for different levels of protein similarity, yielding a hierarchical organisation of clusters. The database provides links to InterPro, which integrates information on protein families, domains and functional sites from PROSITE, PRINTS, Pfam and ProDom. Links to the InterPro graphical interface allow users to see at a glance whether proteins from the cluster share particular functional sites. CluSTr also provides cross-references to HSSP and PDB. The database is available for querying and browsing at http://www.ebi.ac.uk/clustr. 相似文献

On the frequency of protein glycosylation, as deduced from analysis of the SWISS-PROT database 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
The SWISS-PROT protein sequence data bank contains at present nearly 75,000 entries, almost two thirds of which include the potential N-glycosylation consensus sequence, or sequon, NXS/T (where X can be any amino acid but proline) and thus may be glycoproteins. The number of proteins filed as glycoproteins is however considerably smaller, 7942, of which 749 have been characterized with respect to the total number of their carbohydrate units and sites of attachment of the latter to the protein, as well as the nature of the carbohydrate-peptide linking group. Of these well characterized glycoproteins, about 90% carry either N-linked carbohydrate units alone or both N- and O-linked ones, attached at 1297 N-glycosylation sites (1.9 per glycoprotein molecule) and the rest are O-glycosylated only. Since the total number of sequons in the well characterized glycoproteins is 1968, their rate of occupancy is 2/3. Assuming that the same number of N-linked units and rate of sequon occupancy occur in all sequon containing proteins and that the proportion of solely O-glycosylated proteins (ca. 10%) will also be the same as among the well characterized ones, we conclude that the majority of sequon containing proteins will be found to be glycosylated and that more than half of all proteins are glycoproteins. 相似文献

The SWISS-PROT protein knowledgebase and its supplement TrEMBL in 2003 总被引:56,自引:4,他引:52

The SWISS-PROT protein knowledgebase (http://www.expasy.org/sprot/ and http://www.ebi.ac.uk/swissprot/) connects amino acid sequences with the current knowledge in the Life Sciences. Each protein entry provides an interdisciplinary overview of relevant information by bringing together experimental results, computed features and sometimes even contradictory conclusions. Detailed expertise that goes beyond the scope of SWISS-PROT is made available via direct links to specialised databases. SWISS-PROT provides annotated entries for all species, but concentrates on the annotation of entries from human (the HPI project) and other model organisms to ensure the presence of high quality annotation for representative members of all protein families. Part of the annotation can be transferred to other family members, as is already done for microbes by the High-quality Automated and Manual Annotation of microbial Proteomes (HAMAP) project. Protein families and groups of proteins are regularly reviewed to keep up with current scientific findings. Complementarily, TrEMBL strives to comprise all protein sequences that are not yet represented in SWISS-PROT, by incorporating a perpetually increasing level of mostly automated annotation. Researchers are welcome to contribute their knowledge to the scientific community by submitting relevant findings to SWISS-PROT at swiss-prot@expasy.org. 相似文献

MOTIVATION: There have been several endeavours to address the problem of annotating sequence data computationally, but the task is non-trivial and few tools have emerged that gather useful information on a given sequence, or set of sequences, in a simple and convenient manner. As more genome projects bear fruit, the mass of uncharacterized sequence data accumulating in public repositories grows ever larger. There is thus a pressing need for tools to support the process of automatic analysis and annotation of newly determined sequences. With this in mind, we have developed PRECIS, which automatically creates protein reports from sets of SWISS-PROT entries, collating results into structured reports, detailing known biological and medical information, literature and database cross-references, and relevant keywords. 相似文献

SWISS-PROT is an annotated protein sequence database established in 1986 and maintained collaboratively, since 1988, by the Department of Medical Biochemistry of the University of Geneva and the EMBL Data Library. The SWISS-PROT protein sequence data bank consist of sequence entries. Sequence entries are composed of different lines types, each with their own format. For standardization purposes the format of SWISS-PROT follows as closely as possible that of the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database. A sample SWISS-PROT entry is shown in Figure 1. 相似文献

We describe a web server, which provides easy access to the SLoop database of loop conformations connecting elements of protein secondary structure. The loops are classified according to their length, the type of bounding secondary structures and the conformation of the mainchain. The current release of the database consists of over 8000 loops of up to 20 residues in length. A loop prediction method, which selects conformers on the basis of the sequence and the positions of the elements of secondary structure, is also implemented. These web pages are freely accessible over the internet at http://www-cryst.bioc.cam.ac.uk/ approximately sloop. 相似文献

DisProt: a database of protein disorder 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Vucetic S Obradovic Z Vacic V Radivojac P Peng K Iakoucheva LM Cortese MS Lawson JD Brown CJ Sikes JG Newton CD Dunker AK 《Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)》2005,21(1):137-140
The Database of Protein Disorder (DisProt) is a curated database that provides structure and function information about proteins that lack a fixed three-dimensional (3D) structure under putatively native conditions, either in their entirety or in part. Starting from the central premise that intrinsic disorder is an important structural class of protein and in order to meet the increasing interest thereof, DisProt is aimed at becoming a central repository of disorder-related information. For each disordered protein, the database includes the name of the protein, various aliases, accession codes, amino acid sequence, location of the disordered region(s), and methods used for structural (disorder) characterization. If applicable, most entries also list the biological function(s) of each disordered region, how each region of disorder is used for function, as well as provide links to PubMed abstracts and major protein databases.

With the rapid growth of sequence databases, there is an increasing need for reliable functional characterisation and annotation of newly predicted proteins. To cope with such large data volumes, faster and more effective means of protein sequence characterisation and annotation are required. One promising approach is automatic large-scale functional characterisation and annotation, which is generated with limited human interaction. However, such an approach is heavily dependent on reliable data sources. The SWISS-PROT protein sequence database plays an essential role here owing to its high level of functional information. 相似文献

MOTIVATION: Protein-protein interactions are a potential source of valuable clues in determining the functional role of as yet uncharacterized gene products in metabolic pathways. Graph-like structures emerging from the accumulation of interaction data make it difficult to maintain a consistent and global overview by hand. Bioinformatics tools are needed to perform this graph visualization while maintaining a link to the experimental data. RESULTS: "SPiD" is an online database for exploring networks of interacting proteins in Bacillus subtilis characterized by the two-hybrid system. Graphical displays of interaction networks are created dynamically as users interactively navigate through these networks. Third party applications can interface the database through a Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) tier. AVAILABILITY: SPiD is available through its web site at http://www-mig.versailles.inra.fr/bdsi/SPiD, and through an Interoperable Object Reference (IOR) and its associated Interface Definition Language (IDL).

SUMMARY: The DBAli database includes approximately 35000 alignments of pairs of protein structures from SCOP (Lo Conte et al., Nucleic Acids Res., 28, 257-259, 2000) and CE (Shindyalov and Bourne, Protein Eng., 11, 739-747, 1998). DBAli is linked to several resources, including Compare3D (Shindyalov and Bourne, http://www.sdsc.edu/pb/software.htm, 1999) and ModView (Ilyin and Sali, http://guitar.rockefeller.edu/ModView/, 2001) for visualizing sequence alignments and structure superpositions. A flexible search of DBAli by protein sequence and structure properties allows construction of subsets of alignments suitable for a number of applications, such as benchmarking of sequence-sequence and sequence-structure alignment methods under a variety of conditions.
