Welcome to Cysteinome
Cysteine is a unique amino acid with the thiol side chain serving as an intrinsic nucleophile and often participating in various enzymatic reactions. In recent years, covalent probes or inhibitors homing at a cysteine thiol group present in the target proteins have attracted significant attention. But the lack of systematic information for proteins with targetable cysteine has hindered the design and discovery of covalent modulators of protein functions and activities. Therefore, a comprehensive database with an analysis system dedicated to proteins with targetable cysteine can be very useful. Cysteinome, the first online database that provides a rich resource for the display, search and analysis of structure, function and related annotation for proteins with targetable cysteine as well as their covalent modulators.
Cysteinome will contribute to the understanding of how protein targets is covalently modified by chemical probes homing at cysteine residue and will serve as a useful resource for the development of covalent inhibitors. Cysteinome is able to provide considerably more information about proteins and ligands by hyperlinking to the particular databases, such as UniProt, KEGG, PDB and PubChem.
Announcement
For some reasons, old version Cysteinome website is offline now, and I am trying to recover the database by this Wiki site. If you have any question or suggestion, please feel free to connect me:
