DIONYSUS: a database of protein-carbohydrate interfaces.

ABSTRACT: Protein-carbohydrate interactions govern a wide variety of biological processes and play an essential role in the development of different diseases. Here, we present DIONYSUS, the first database of protein-carbohydrate interfaces annotated according to structural, chemical and functional properties of both proteins and carbohydrates. We provide exhaustive information on the nature of interactions, binding site composition, biological function and specific additional information retrieved from existing databases. The user can easily search the database using protein sequence and structure information or by carbohydrate binding site properties. Moreover, for a given interaction site, the user can perform its comparison with a representative subset of non-covalent protein-carbohydrate interac
