Dear All,
I'd like to announce our new web resource
http://www.bmm.icnet.uk/3dgenomics/ which provides protein annotation
for fully sequenced genomes. The database has a focus on protein
structure (SCOP doamins). These are the main features:
- general overview of the annotation status of a particular genome
- assignment of SCOP superfamilies to genomes
- comparison of occurence and frequencies of SCOP superfamilies in
different genomes
- SCOP superfamilies in globular parts of membrane proteins in different
genomes
- PFAM, SwissProt, PIR assignments + text search of annotation
- annotation of protein from human disease genes
- a detaild report for each processed protein sequence, including:
- prediction of transmembrane, coiled-coil and low complexity regions
- signal peptides
- SCOP, PFAM, PDB, SwissProt+PIR assignments
- Prosite pattern matches
- detection of internal repeats
- Position Specific Sequence Profiles (from PSI-BLAST)
- secondary structure prediction
- search for homologous sequences using BLAST, PSI-BLAST, IMPALA
or 3D-PSSM and
filter the restuls for one ore more taxonomic groups, source
databases or genomes
- access alignments (mutiple alignnment style or pairwise
alignments)
- sequence searches + alignments are precompiled and easy to
access (I hope ;-)
The web-site is a side-product of ongoing research projects in our lab,
but it's free to access. The web-resource is still under construction
and may change in future. In particular we try to speed things up. Just
give it a try ...
thanks,
Arne
