PDZBase is a database that aims to contain all known PDZ-domain-mediated protein-protein interactions. Currently, PDZBase contains approximately 300 such interactions, which have been manually extracted from > 200 articles. The database can be queried through both sequence motif and keyword-based searches, and the sequences of interacting proteins can be visually inspected through alignments (for the comparison of several interactions), or as residue-based diagrams including schematic secondary structure information (for individual complexes).

PDZ-containing proteins comprise one of the most widely distributed protein families playing major role in localization and membrane receptor clustering. They are hence important regulators of signal transduction in cellular pathways. Although knowledge on these proteins has increased exponentially, the existing database 'PDZBase' is limited by presence of only 339 proteins as it dates back to 2004 when very little data was available.

Background: Protein-protein interaction (PPI) databases have become a major resource for investigating biological networks and pathways in cells. A number of publicly available repositories for human PPIs are currently available. Each of these databases has their own unique features with a large variation in the type and depth of their annotations.
