MACiE (Mechanism, annotation and classification in enzymes): Novel tools for searching catalytic mechanisms

Abstract

MACiE (Mechanism, Annotation and Classification in Enzymes) is a database of enzyme reaction mechanisms, and is publicly available as a web-based data resource. This paper presents the first release of a web-based search tool to explore enzyme reaction mechanisms in MACiE. We also present Version 2 of MACiE, which doubles the dataset available (from Version 1). MACiE can be accessed from http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ thornton-srv/databases/MACiE/. © 2007 Oxford University Press.
