Protein domain analysis can predict protein structure and function. A new database of protein domain sequences and properties aids in characterizing unknown protein sequences, aiding in protein identification and function prediction.

Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Structural Biology
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Protein sequences are often determined without structural or functional context.
  • Identifying protein domains through sequence comparison is analogous to identifying whole proteins.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose the creation of a protein domain sequence database.
  • To outline the information and techniques for characterizing protein domains.

Main Methods:

  • Database design for storing domain sequences and properties.
  • Techniques for determining characteristic domain features.
  • Comparative analysis of novel domain sequences.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated the utility of domain-based inference for protein characterization.
