What you can do: To search for catalytic residue annotation for enzymes in the Protein Data Bank.
Highlights:
  • The database consists of two types of annotated site: an original hand-annotated set containing information extracted from the primary literature, using defined criteria to assign catalytic residues, and an additional homologous set, containing annotations inferred by PSI-BLAST and sequence alignment to one of the original set.
  • The CSA can be queried via Swiss-Prot identifier and EC number.
  • CSA Version 1.0 contains 177 original hand- annotated entries and 2608 homologous entries as of 2004. It is updated monthly.
Keywords:
  • enzymes
  • catalytic sites
  • catalytic residues
  • protein functional sites
  • protein structures
  • protein annotations
