Protein Databases
In 1988, The Protein Information Resource (PIR), established a cooperative effort with the Munich Information Center for Protein Sequences (MIPS) and the Japan International Protein Information Database (JIPID) , produces the PIR-International . Protein Sequence Database (PIR-PSD) -- a comprehensive, non-redundant, expertly annotated, fully classified and extensively cross-referenced protein sequence database in the public domain. The PIR-PSD, PIR-NREF, iProClass and other PIR auxiliary databases provide an integration of sequences, functional, and structural information to support genomics and proteomics research
The PIR-PSD, Current Release 71.04, March 01, 2002, Contains 283153 Entries
