AAindex -- Amino Acid index database

What you can do:
Search for information on property and similarity of amino acids expressed as numerical values.
Highlights:
  • AAindex is a database of numerical indices representing various physicochemical and biochemical properties of amino acids and pairs of amino acids.
  • We have added a collection of protein contact potentials to the AAindex as a new section.
  • Accordingly AAindex consists of three sections now: AAindex1 for the amino acid index of 20 numerical values, AAindex2 for the amino acid substitution matrix and AAindex3 for the statistical protein contact potentials.
  • All data are derived from published literature.
Keywords:
  • amino acids
  • amino acid properties
  • amino acid similarity
  • amino acid mutations
  • amino acid mutation matrices
  • amino acid indices
  • amino acid substitution matrix
  • amino acid protein contact potentials
