SCOP database in 2002: refinements accommodate structural genomics
MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Hills Road, Cambridge CB2 2QH, UK, 1Department of Plant and Microbial Biology, 111 Koshland Hall #3102, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-3102, USA, 2Sanger Centre, Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridge CB10 1SA, UK and 3MRC Centre for Protein Engineering, Hills Road, Cambridge CB2 2QH, UK
The SCOP (Structural Classification of Proteins) database is a comprehensive ordering of all proteins of known structure, according to their evolutionary and structural relationships. Protein domains in SCOP are grouped into species and hierarchically classified into families, superfamilies, folds and classes. Recently, we introduced a new set of features with the aim of standardizing access to the database, and providing a solid basis to manage the increasing number of experimental structures expected from structural genomics projects. These features include: a new set of identifiers, which uniquely identify each entry in the hierarchy; a compact representation of protein domain classification; a new set of parseable files, which fully describe all domains in SCOP and the hierarchy itself. These new features are reflected in the ASTRAL compendium. The SCOP search engine has also been updated, and a set of links to external resources added at the level of domain entries. SCOP can be accessed at http://scop.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/scop.
