What you can do:
|
Search for information on all known structural proteins of Arthropod cuticle.
|
|
Highlights:
|
- CuticleDB is a relational database containing all structural proteins of Arthropod cuticle identified to date.
- CuticleDB was primarily designed to contain correct and full annotation of cuticular protein data.
- Many come from direct sequencing of proteins isolated from cuticle and from sequences from cDNAs that share common features with these authentic cuticular proteins.
- It also includes proteins from the Drosophila melanogaster and the Anopheles gambiae genomes, that have been predicted to be cuticular proteins, based on a Pfam motif responsible for chitin binding in Arthropod cuticle.
