Bateman team

The Protein sequence resources team, led by Dr Alex Bateman, sets out to classify protein and RNA sequences to build ‘periodic tables’ of these molecules for biologists. The classifications are embodied in several databases that the group develops, including Pfam, Rfam, TreeFam and MEROPS. As Head of Protein Sequence Resources at EMBL-EBI, Alex Bateman also has an important strategic leadership role in the InterPro and UniProtKB databases.
