Scop Database details

Synopsis

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.

A more detailed description of the database is available. Help on using the


database may be obtained on any screen by pressing the question mark button.
