Novel developments with the PRINTS protein fingerprint database
The PRINTS database of protein family 'fingerprints' is a diagnostic resource that complements the PROSITE dictionary of sites and patterns. Unlike regular expressions, fingerprints exploit groups of conserved motifs within sequence alignments to build characteristic signatures of family membership. Thus fingerprints inherently offer improved diagnostic reliability by virtue of the mutual conte...
متن کاملProgress with the PRINTS protein fingerprint database
PRINTS is a compendium of protein motif 'fingerprints' derived from the OWL composite sequence database. Fingerprints are groups of motifs within sequence alignments whose conserved nature allows them to be used as signatures of family membership. To date, 400 fingerprints have been constructed and stored in Prints, the size of which has doubled in the last year. The current version, 9.0, encod...
متن کاملThe PRINTS protein fingerprint database in its fifth year
PRINTS is a database of protein family 'fingerprints' offering a diagnostic resource for newly-determined sequences. By contrast with PROSITE, which uses single consensus expressions to characterise particular families, PRINTS exploits groups of motifs to build characteristic signatures. These signatures offer improved diagnostic reliability by virtue of the mutual context provided by motif nei...
متن کاملThe PRINTS Database: A Resource for Identification of Protein Families
The PRINTS database houses a collection of protein fingerprints, which may be used to assign family and functional attributes to uncharacterised sequences, such as those currently emanating from the various genome-sequencing projects. The April 2002 release includes 1,700 family fingerprints, encoding approximately 10,500 motifs, covering a range of globular and membrane proteins, modular polyp...
متن کاملThe PRINTS Database of Protein Fingerprints: A Novel Information Resource for Computational Molecular Biology
PRINTS is a compendium of protein motif fingerprints derived from the OWL composite sequence database. Fingerprints are groups of motifs within sequence alignments whose conserved nature allows them to be used as signatures of family membership. Fingerprints inherently offer improved diagnostic reliability over single motif methods by virtue of the mutual context provided by motif neighbors. To...
