Protein structural databases in computational biology

Abstract

Protein databases have becomes a Pivotal part of computational biology. Huge amount of data for protein structure function and particularly sequence are being generated. Searching database is a first step of study to find new protein. We introduce the basics of protein structural bioinformatics. Protein perform most essential biological and chemical function in a cell. They also play important role in structural, enzymatic, transport and regulatory functions. and is determined by their structure. This review covers some basic of protein structure and associated databases and it is more advanced topic of protein structural bioinformatics. This work provides to explore the potential of protein databases on internet.
