Abstract:
EXProt (database for EXPerimentally verified Protein functions) is a new non-redundant database containing protein sequences for which the function has been experimentally verified. It is a selection of 3976 entries from the Prokaryotes section of the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database, Release 66, and 375 entries from the Pseudomonas Community Annotation Project (PseudoCAP). The entries in EXProt all have a unique ID number and provide information about the organism, protein sequence, functional annotation, link to entry in original database, and if known, gene name and link to references in PubMed/Medline. The EXProt web page (http://www.cmbi.nl/EXProt) provides further details of the database and a link to a BLAST search (blastp & blastx) of the database. The EXProt entries are indexed in SRS (http://www.cmbi.nl/srs/) and can be searched by means of keywords. Authors can be reached by email (exprot(cmbi.kun.nl).
