PhosphoSitePlus® Publishes in Nucleic Acids Research
PhosphoSitePlus® (PSP) is an expert knowledge base of protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) provided by Cell Signaling Technology. This comprehensive, NIH-funded archive contains information on 130,000 non-redundant protein modification sites, including phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and acetylation. PSP offers a wealth of tools for the study of PTMs, such as a modification site search function, substrate sequence logos, and molecular models of modified proteins.
The January 2012 Database Issue of Nucleic Acids Research (NAR) includes a full-length, feature article on PSP that describes the content and navigational structure of the PSP open database. This select, annual issue of NAR highlights online database resources that are considered to be of high value to the scientific community.
