Description

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Summary: InterProScan is a tool that scans given protein sequences against the protein signatures of the InterPro member databases, currently – PROSITE, PRINTS, Pfam, ProDom and SMART. The number of signature databases and their associated scanning tools as well as the further refinement procedures make the problem complex. InterProScan is designed to be a scalable and extensible system with a robust internal architecture.</jats:p> <jats:p>Availability: The Perl-based InterProScan implementation is available from the EBI ftp server (ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/software/unix/iprscan/) and the SRS-basedInterProScan is available upon request. We provide the public web interface (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/interpro/scan.html) as well as email submission server (interproscan@ebi.ac.uk).</jats:p> <jats:p>Contact: Evgueni.Zdobnov@EBI.ac.uk</jats:p> <jats:p>* To whom correspondence should be addressed.</jats:p>
