Protein Spotlight

a wretched tale
January 2013

We all need guidance in life. And sperm cells are no exception to the rule. In plants, as in all living beings that depend on sex to multiply, a male gamete has to reach a female gamete in order to fuse with it…

Welcome

The mission of UniProt is to provide the scientific community with a comprehensive, high-quality and freely accessible resource of protein sequence and functional information.

What we provide

UniProtKBProtein knowledgebase, consists of two sections:
  • Swiss-Prot, which is manually annotated and reviewed.
  • TrEMBL, which is automatically annotated and is not reviewed.
Includes complete and reference proteome sets.
UniRefSequence clusters, used to speed up sequence similarity searches.
UniParcSequence archive, used to keep track of sequences and their identifiers.
Supporting dataLiterature citations, taxonomy, keywords, subcellular locations, cross-referenced databases and more.
