PASS2 -- an automated database of Protein Alignments Organized as Structural Superfamilies
What you can do:
Search for sequence alignments of proteins grouped at the level of superfamilies.
Highlights:
- PASS2 contains alignments of protein structures at the superfamily level and is in direct correspondence with SCOP 1.63 release.
- The current version contains 628 multi member superfamilies and 566 structure based sequence annotated single member superfamilies.
- Sequence members for the superfamilies in different genomes have been listed and aligned.
- Links have been provided to the conserved interacting motifs and the hidden markov models for the different superfamilies present in PASS2.
- Sequence alignment with PASS2 members are possible using MALIGN and JOY.
- Sequence searches against the PASS2 database using PSI-BLAST and PHI-BLAST can also be pursued.
- Prediction of a superfamily based on structural compatibility can also be performed.
- Each entry of PASS2 has been linked to other databases and tools for easy access of information.
