What problem does it solve?
InterPro provides a centralized interface to access protein family, domain, and functional site annotations by integrating 13 member databases, empowering researchers to quickly predict protein function and analyze domain architecture without juggling multiple resources.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Unified access: REST API endpoints to fetch protein entries, domain annotations, GO terms, and cross-references to UniProt, Pfam, and PDB.
- Protein characterization: Determine domain architecture, family classification, and evolutionary relationships for model proteins and proteomes.
- GO term mapping: Retrieve GO annotations associated with InterPro entries for functional inference.
- Batch and search workflows: Scan multiple proteins, perform text or taxonomy searches, and inspect domain-level details for comparative analyses.
Quick Start
Query InterPro for the UniProt entry P04637 to retrieve its domains and GO terms.
