PROTCOM: searchable database of protein complexes enhanced with domain-domain structures.

ABSTRACT: The database of protein complexes (PROTCOM) is a compilation of known 3D structures of protein-protein complexes enriched with artificially created domain-domain structures using the available entries in the Protein Data Bank. The domain-domain structures are generated by parsing single chain structures into loosely connected domains and are important features of the database. The database (http://www.ces.clemson.edu/compbio/protcom) could be used for benchmarking purposes of the docking and other algorithms for predicting 3D structures of protein-protein complexes. The database can be utilized as a template database in the homology or threading methods for modeling the 3D structures of unknown protein-protein complexes. PROTCOM provides the scientific community with an integrated set of t
