Information concerning disease causing mutations is now available in the database.
In particular we provide cross-references to the identificators for the spots corresponding to known or unknown microsequenced proteins. We also create new entries for micro- sequences that correspond to novel, yet unidentified, proteins. This will allow the detection of protein families and domains that cannot be detected using patterns due to their extreme sequence divergence. Typical examples of important functional domains which are weakly conserved are the Ig domains, the SH2 and SH3 domains, or the Fn-III domain.
