Text search
InterPro can also be searched using text (Figure 19). The different search types accepted are listed below:
Type of search term | Result of search | Example |
InterPro identifier or short name | An exact match to the identifier if the entry exists. A list of InterPro entries and member database signatures related to the identifier. | IPR017281 Dkk3_N |
Word or a short phrase | A list of all InterPro entries and member database signatures with the search word or phrase in their title or annotation. | breast cancer |
Member database signature | The InterPro entry it is integrated in (if integrated) and the signature itself. | PF02932 |
Gene Ontology term identifier | A list of all InterPro entries with that GO term. | GO:0006811 |
PDB structure identifier | An exact match to the identifier if the structure exists. A list of InterPro entries and member database signatures that match the protein to which the structural identifier relates. | 7v0x |
UniProtKB protein accession or short name | An exact match to the accession/short name if the protein exists and has InterPro annotations. A list of InterPro entries and member database signatures related to the accession/short name. | A0A011QK89L2HDH_ACCRE |
Gene name | An exact match to the gene if the gene exists. A list of all InterPro entries and member database signatures with the gene in their title or annotation. | BRCA2 |
Proteome identifier | An exact match to the identifier if the proteome exists. A list of InterPro entries matching the proteome. | UP000000589 |
Clan/Set identifier | An exact match to the identifier if the set exists. A list of member database signatures included in the clan/set. Clan/Sets are available for CDD, PANTHER, Pfam and PIRSF member databases. | CL0247 |
Taxonomy identifier | An exact match to the identifier if the taxon exists. A list of InterPro entries and member database signatures matching the taxonomy. | 11128 |
For all the types of search terms, except for the word/phrase and Gene Ontology search, a link to the corresponding InterPro page is available in the ‘found an exact match‘ section in the search result page if included in InterPro.
When entering an InterPro identifier, a UniProtKB identifier, a member database signature, a protein structure identifier, a proteome identifier or a set identifier directly in the top search, next to the magnifying glass (Figure 19) from any InterPro page, you will be redirected to their respective InterPro page; this is explained further in the next section.
