ProGMap -- Protein Group Mappings
What you can do:
Find information about protein group classifications.
Highlights:
- ProGMap is a web-tool designed to help researchers and database annotators to assess the coherence of protein groups defined in various databases and thereby facilitate the annotation of newly sequenced proteins.
- It is based on a non-redundant dataset of over 6.6 million protein sequences which is mapped to 240,000 protein group descriptions collected from UniProt, RefSeq, Ensembl, COG, KOG, OrthoMCL-DB, HomoloGene, TRIBES and PIRSF.
- ProGMap combines the underlying classification schemes via a network of links constructed by a fast and fully automated mapping approach originally developed for document classification.
- The web interface enables queries to be made using sequence identifiers, gene symbols, protein functions or amino acid and nucleotide sequences.
- For the latter query type BLAST similarity search and QuickMatch identity search services have been incorporated, for finding sequences similar (or identical) to a query sequence.
- ProGMap is meant to help users of high throughput methodologies who deal with partially annotated genomic data.
