ProtoNet: Protonet Tools

ProtoNet Version 5.1 Beta offers automatic hierarchical classification of proteins. Proteins are processed using a novel clustering algorithm which relies on their sequence distances. The ProtoNet classification hierarchically partitions the protein space into clusters of similar proteins. The lower a cluster is situated in its tree, the smaller it is and the more similar are its proteins to each other. Browsing the clustering hierarchy can provide insight as to function and structure of proteins.
