PROSITE
Database of protein families and domains


PROSITE is a database of protein families and domains. It consists of biologically significant sites, patterns and profiles that help to reliably identify to which known protein family (if any) a new sequence belongs [More details / References / Disclaimer].

Release 17.43, of 13-Apr-2003 (contains 1183 documentation entries that describe 1621 different patterns, rules and profiles/matrices).


Access to PROSITE

in PROSITE by AC, ID or documentation text
Prefix and append wildcard '*' to words.

Tools for PROSITE
Scan PROSITE patterns, profiles and rules with a Swiss-Prot/TrEMBL AC, ID or paste your own sequence in the box below (for more options, use the ScanProsite form):


 Exclude patterns with a high probability of occurrence
  • ScanProsite - Scan a sequence against PROSITE or a pattern against Swiss-Prot or new PDB and visualize matches on structures
  • MotifScan - Scan a sequence against the profile entries in PROSITE and Pfam
  • InterProScan - Scan a sequence against all the motif databases in InterPro
  • ps_scan - Perl program to scan PROSITE locally
  • PRATT - Interactively generates conserved patterns from a series of unaligned proteins
  • Other pattern and profile search tools
