CutDB: a proteolytic event database

The Burnham Institute for Medical Research offers several databases, including PMAP CutDB. CutDB is a database of proteases and their proteolytic events - including predicted events - from experiments and the literature, at http://cutdb.burnham.org It can be searched by a wide range of field, listed to the right. Some entries link to extensive lists of events such as furin, while others have only one entry such as griselysin.
  • Clicking on the name in [Protease_definition] may lead to an entry in the PMAP-Proteases database.
  • Clicking on the [Substrate definition] leads to its NCBI Protein entry.
  • Clicking on [Structure] links may crash your web browser - it seems to be highly MSIE/default settings dependent.
  • Clicking on [Details] leads to an entry with substrate/structure, cut-site, cell line and original citation.
