UniqueProt is a practical and easy to use web service designed to create representative, unbiased data sets of protein sequences. The largest possible representative sets are found through a simple greedy algorithm using the HSSP-value to establish sequence similarity. UniqueProt is not a real clustering program in the sense that the 'representatives' are not at the centres of well-defined clusters since the definition of such clusters is problem-specific. Overall, UniqueProt is a reasonable fast solution for bias in data sets. The service is accessible at http://cubic.bioc.columbia.edu/services/uniqueprot; a command-line version for Linux is downloadable from this web site.
