Short guide to searching
protein databases


In order to find out virtually anything you want to know about an enzyme, use the EC Enzyme Database. This database can be searched using the name of the enzyme. A series of different enzymes )with associated EC numbers) will come up. When you click on a particular type of enzyme (EC number), it will lead you into a page that contains links to other types of information, including: the reaction catalyzed, associated metabolic diseases (OMIM), and what is known about enzymes from particular organisms. When you in turn click on an enzyme from a particular organism you will be led to a page that contains links to protein sequence, pattern, and structure for that enzyme.
