Notes
Submited protein sequences will be scaned them against the PROSITE collection of motifs. PROSITE motifs encompass both PROSITE profiles and patterns that are used to identify protein domains, families and functional sites. A single file containing all PROSITE motifs can be found at ftp://ftp.expasy.org/databases/prosite/prosite.dat.
