KIND-a non-redundant protein database

Bioinformatics. 1999 Mar;15(3):260-1. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/15.3.260.

Abstract

Summary: KIND (Karolinska Institutet Nonredundant Database) is a protein database where identical sequences, both full length and partial, have been removed. The database contains nearly 274 900 sequences, half of which originate from the protein sequence databases Swissprot and PIR, while the other half come from translated open reading frames in GenPept and TrEMBL.

Availability: KIND is downloadable from ftp://ftp.mbb.ki.se/pub/KIND.
