PRINTS is a diagnostic collection of protein fingerprints. Fingerprints
exploit groups of motifs to build characteristic family signatures,
offering improved diagnostic reliability over single-motif approaches by
virtue of the mutual context provided by motif neighbours. Around 1000
fingerprints have now been created and stored in PRINTS. The September 1998
release (version 20.0), encodes approximately 5700 motifs, covering a range
of globular and membrane proteins, modular polypeptides and so on. The
database is accessible via the DbBrowser Web Server at
http://www.biochem.ucl.ac.uk/bsm/dbbrowser /. In addition to supporting its
continued growth, recent enhancements to the resource include a BLAST
server, and more efficient fingerprint search software, with improved
statistics for estimating the reliability of retrieved matches. Current
efforts are focused on the design of more automated methods for database
maintenance; implementation of an object- relational schema for efficient
data management; and integration with PROSITE, profiles, Pfam and ProDom,
as part of the international InterPro project, which aims to unify protein
pattern databases and offer improved tools for genome analysis.
