TCDB -- Transporter Classification Database for membrane transport protein analyses and information
URL:
What you can do:
Search for comprehensive information on documented and predicted membrane transport protein.
Highlights:
- The Transporter Classification Database is a relational database containing sequence, structural, functional and evolutionary information about transport systems from a variety of living organisms, based on the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology-approved transporter classification (TC) system.
- It is a curated repository for factual information compiled largely from published references.
- It uses a functional/phylogenetic system of classification, and currently encompasses about 5000 representative transporters and putative transporters in more than 500 families.
- The 2009 update makes it more user friendly, incorporates machine learning to input novel data in a semiautomatic fashion, and allows analyses that are more accurate and less time consuming.
