EVEREST: automatic identification and classification of protein domains in all protein sequences

Abstract

The EVEREST process and its output domain families provide an exhaustive and validated view of the protein domain world that is automatically generated from sequence data. The EVEREST library of domain families, accessible for browsing and download at 1, provides a complementary view to that provided by other existing libraries. Furthermore, since it is automatic, the EVEREST process is scalable and we will run it in the future on larger databases as well. The EVEREST source files are available for download from the EVEREST web site.
