What you can do: Study protein classification based on an automatic classification of SWISS-PROT+TrEMBL proteins into groups of related proteins.
Highlights:
  • The CluSTr database offers an automatic classification of UniProt Knowledgebase proteins into groups of related proteins. The clustering is based on analysis of all pairwise comparisons between protein sequences.
  • Both hierarchy of clusters of related proteins ordered by their degree of similarity and hierarchies for the proteins of each individual species are available.
  • It contains information about proteins from 145 organisms with completely sequenced genomes.
  • Proteomes represented in CluSTr include 10 complete eukaryote proteomes (Arabidopsis thaliana, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, Encephalitozoon cuniculi, Guillardia theta, Homo sapiens, Mus musculus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Rattus norvegicus).
Keywords:
  • protein classification
  • protein clustering
  • eukaryote proteomes
  • protein domain classification
  • domain architectures
