ECOD: integrating classifications of protein domains from experimental and predicted structures.

The evolutionary classification of protein domains (ECOD) classifies protein domains using a combination of sequence and structural data (http://prodata.swmed.edu/ecod).

The Pfam protein families database: embracing AI/ML.

The Pfam protein families database is a comprehensive collection of protein domains and families used for genome annotation and protein structure and function analysis (https://www.ebi.ac.

Range-wide population genomic structure of the Karner blue butterfly, () .

The Karner blue butterfly, () , is an endangered North American climate change-vulnerable species that has undergone substantial historical habitat loss and population decline. To better understand the species' genetic status and support Karner blue conservation, we sampled 116 individuals from 22 localities across the species' geographical range in Wisconsin (WI), Michigan (MI), Indiana (IN), and New York (NY). Using genomic analysis, we found that these samples were divided into three major geographic groups, NY, WI, and MI-IN, with populations in WI and MI-IN each further divided into three subgroups.

Bridging the Gap between Sequence and Structure Classifications of Proteins with AlphaFold Models.

Classification of protein domains based on homology and structural similarity serves as a fundamental tool to gain biological insights into protein function. Recent advancements in protein structure prediction, exemplified by AlphaFold, have revolutionized the availability of protein structural data. We focus on classifying about 9000 Pfam families into ECOD (Evolutionary Classification of Domains) by using predicted AlphaFold models and the DPAM (Domain Parser for AlphaFold Models) tool.
