Swiss-Prot Definition
Swiss-Prot is a protein knowledgebase established in 1986 and maintained collaboratively, since 1987, by the Department of Medical Biochemistry of the University of Geneva (now the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics) and the EMBL Data Library. It is a curated protein sequence database which strives to provide a high level of annotation (such as the description of the function of a protein, its domains structure, post-translational modifications, variants, etc.), a minimal level of redundancy and high level of integration with other databases.
