Abstract |
Physico-chemical properties of amino acids can
be used to study protein sequence profiles, folding and function. We
collated 242 properties for the 20 naturally occurring amino acids and
created a dataset. The dataset is available as a database named APDbase
(Amino acid Physico-chemical properties Database).
The database can be queried using either key words describing physico-chemical
properties or pre-assigned database index number. The database contains
corresponding references for each property value and facilitates deposition
of new property values for processing and inclusion in the database.
