SCOP
收藏资源简介:
Nearly all proteins have structural similarities with other proteins and, in some of these cases, share a common evolutionary origin. The SCOP database, created by manual inspection and abetted by a battery of automated methods, aims to provide a detailed and comprehensive description of the structural and evolutionary relationships between all proteins whose structure is known. As such, it provides a broad survey of all known protein folds, detailed information about the close relatives of any particular protein, and a framework for future research and classification.
几乎所有蛋白质均与其他蛋白质存在结构相似性,其中部分蛋白质还拥有共同的进化起源。由人工检视并辅以大量自动化方法构建的SCOP数据库(Structural Classification of Proteins),旨在为所有已知结构的蛋白质之间的结构与进化关联提供详尽且全面的描述。该数据库可系统性概览所有已知的蛋白质折叠(protein folds),为任意特定蛋白质的同源近缘蛋白提供详细信息,并为后续相关研究与蛋白质分类工作搭建标准化框架。
