Abstract

BLASTP gives a good overall indication of what function a protein might have. However, analysis of BLASTP reports to discover various domain features in the protein is still tedious. We address this problem by using the modern data integration system, Kleisli, to bring out annotated features of BLASTP results. We further strengthen our solution by incorporating additional information from SEG, ClustalW, hmmPfam, etc. It is also noteworthy that the codes of our implementation is sufficiently short to be presented in its entirety.
