PPIDB — A PROTEIN-PROTEIN INTERACTIONS DATABASE

The development of the proteomics field in the post-genomics era has led to an accumulation of data concerning parameters affecting protein folding and assembly. Rationally implemented search-and-evaluation engines would provide a valuable tool for structural and functional predictions directly from the sequence of a protein. This would have an impact on many fields, such as folding, regulation of protein function and in other biotechnical applications.
