- http://merops.sanger.ac.uk The MEROPS peptidase database is a central information resource for proteolytic enzymes and the proteins that inhibit them. This database uses an hierarchical, structure-based classification, hence each proteolytic enzyme is assigned to a family (on the basis of statistically significant similarities in amino acid sequence) and families that are thought to be homologous are grouped together in a clan, as detailed in the text.
