| Description |
Pfam is a database of multiple alignments of protein
domains or conserved protein regions. Hopefully they represent some
evolutionary conserved structure which has implications for the protein's
function.
Pfam is actually formed in two separate ways. Pfam-A are accurate
human crafted multiple alignments. To give Pfam a more comprehensive coverage
of known proteins we automatically generate a supplement called Pfam-B
This contains a large number of small families taken from the PRODOM database
that do not overlap with Pfam-A. Although of lower quality Pfam-B families
can be useful when no Pfam-A families are found.
