PlantCAZyme is a database built upon dbCAN (database for automated carbohydrate active enzyme annotation), aiming to provide pre-computed sequence and annotation data of carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes) to plant carbohydrate and bioenergy research communities. The current version contains data of 43,790 CAZymes of 159 protein families from 35 plants (including angiosperms, gymnosperms, lycophyte and bryophyte mosses) and chlorophyte algae with fully sequenced genomes. Useful features of the database include: (i) a BLAST server and a HMMER server that allow users to search against our pre-computed sequence data for annotation purpose, (ii) a download page to allow batch downloading data of a specific CAZyme family or species and (iii) protein browse pages to provide an easy access to the most comprehensive sequence and annotation data.
PlantCAZyme是一个基于dbCAN(碳水化合物活性酶自动注释数据库)构建的数据库,旨在为植物碳水化合物和生物能源研究群体提供预先计算的碳水化合物活性酶(CAZymes)序列和注释数据。当前版本包含来自35种植物(包括被子植物、裸子植物、石松类植物和苔藓植物)以及绿藻且基因组已完全测序的159个蛋白质家族的43,790个CAZymes的数据。该数据库的有用功能包括:(i)一个BLAST服务器和一个HMMER服务器,允许用户针对我们预先计算的序列数据进行搜索以用于注释目的;(ii)一个下载页面,允许批量下载特定CAZyme家族或物种的数据;以及(iii)蛋白质浏览页面,以便轻松访问最全面的序列和注释数据。
