InterPro is a protein signature database integrating major resources for protein families and domains. It provides comprehensive annotation and new features like domain architecture views, covering over 78% of UniProt proteins.

Area of Science:

  • Bioinformatics
  • Computational Biology
  • Proteomics

Background:

  • Protein families, domains, and functional sites are crucial for understanding protein function.
  • Integrating diverse protein signature databases is essential for comprehensive analysis.
  • Existing resources often lack unified access and curated biological information.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present InterPro, an integrated resource for protein families, domains, and functional sites.
  • To highlight new features and expanded content in InterPro release 8.0.
  • To improve protein annotation and analysis through a unified database.

Main Methods:

  • Manual integration of signatures from major protein databases (PROSITE, Pfam, etc.) into InterPro entries.
  • Curating entries with biological and functional information, including Gene Ontology mapping.

  • Developing new features such as extended protein match views, taxonomic range, and 3D structure data.
  • Main Results:

    • InterPro release 8.0 contains 11,007 entries, including domains, families, repeats, active sites, and binding sites.
    • New entry types (active site, binding site) and views (Domain Architecture) enhance descriptive capabilities.
    • InterPro covers over 78% of proteins in Swiss-Prot and TrEMBL, with ongoing integration of new member databases.

    Conclusions:

    • InterPro serves as a vital, integrated resource for protein signature analysis.
    • The database provides comprehensive, curated information and advanced features for researchers.
    • InterPro facilitates efficient protein exploration and discovery through web and FTP access.
