Summary

In this part, we have covered the following:

• InterPro can help if you have a sequence and want to know the protein family to which it belongs, its domain composition and potential functions.
• InterPro entry pages provide information related to that entry, including the contributing signatures, experimental and predicted structures.
• The InterPro text search can be queried with UniProtKB accessions and short names, InterPro entry names, short names and accessions, Member databases signatures accessions, GO terms, PDB structure accessions and plain text.
• To return pre-calculated InterPro analysis results for a PDB structure, perform a text search using its PDB accession.
• InterPro structure pages provide general information about the structure. For each chain of the structure, its relative position to the full length protein and the InterPro matches are displayed in the sequence viewer.

You’ve now got all the tools to explore InterPro with you favourite protein PDB structures or an protein sequence so go ahead and play around!
