Protein complexes play a crucial role in driving biological functions and processes, making it important to gain insights into proteins and their higher-order assemblies.

Complex Portal is a curated resource designed to offer insights into proteins and their higher-level complexes. In this webinar we will introduce the portal, address how we define protein complexes, demonstrate how to search complexes using accession numbers, or keywords specific search, perform organism-specific searches, explore examples of complex details pages including the Complex Viewer and link-outs to related databases. We will also look at the new ‘star-rating’ given to complexes, use the Complex Navigator to compare orthologous and paralogous complexes and introduce the predicted human complexes from huMAP3.0 and MuSIC maps.

Who is this course for?

This webinar is ideal for anyone interested in learning more about proteins and protein complexes, as well as exploring the Complex Portal resource. No prior knowledge of bioinformatics is required, but an undergraduate level understanding of biology would be useful.

Outcomes

By the end of the webinar you will be able to:

• Explore the Complex Portal resource
• Access molecular complexes and enriched annotation data
