Some of the patterns compiled in PROSITE have been published in the literature, but the majority have been developed, in the last two years, by the author.FORMAT The PROSITE database is composed of two ASCII (text) files. The first file (PROSITE. DAT) is a computer-readable file that contains all the information necessary to programs that make use of PROSITE to scan sequence (s) with pattern (s). This file also includes, for each of the patterns described, statistics on the number of hits obtained while scanning for that pattern in the SWISS-PROT protein sequence data bank [7]. Cross-references to the corresponding SWISS-PROT entries are also present in that file. The second file (PROSITE. DOC), which we call the textbook, contains textual information that documents each pattern. A user manual (PROSUSER. TXT) is distributed with the database, it fully describes the format of both files. A sample textbook entry is shown in Figure 1 with the corresponding data from the pattern file.
