SwissProt and TrEMBL http://www.expasy.ch/sprot/

SWISS-PROT is a curated protein sequence database searched by Keyword, Author, Title etc. It strives to provide a high level of annotations (such as the
description of the function of a protein, its domains structure, post-translational modifications, variants, etc.), a minimal level
of redundancy and high level of integration with other databases [More details / References / Disclaimer].

TrEMBL is a computer-annotated supplement of SWISS-PROT that contains all the translations of EMBL nucleotide
sequence entries not yet integrated in SWISS-PROT.

Output gives links to all records with hits to requested protein. Selection of a link brings up a NiceProt view of the data in that record. Links to literature refs; cross refs to other db's (PRODOM, DOMO, PROTOMAP, PFAM, others) ; structure and function info; features table; amino acid sequence.

PRODOM amino acid sequence; map of domains in protein; links to other records with same domain
DOMO
PROTOMAP relates protein of interest to others by function as well as structure. Links to follow up interesting relationships.
PFAM

PROSITE http://expasy.cbr.nrc.ca/prosite/

PROSITE is a database searched by protein families and domains. It consists of biologically significant sites, patterns and profiles that help to reliably identify to which known protein family (if any) a new sequence belongs.

Output is a NiceSite view of the data in SwissProt with links to SWISS-PROT data entry for desired protein as well as related ones with similar structure. Also links to PDB files and structural information.
