PDOMAINS is a resource centered around definition and assignment of structural domains in proteins.

pDomain resource is centered around defining structural domains from 3D coordinates. This resource brings together current state-of-the-art algorithmic methods for partitioning proteins into domains. Evaluation of the methods is performed using multiple parameters and the comprehensive benchmark dataset.

Benchmark datasets used in evaluation of the methods are available for download to the developers on new methods of domain assignments and to the broader scientific community.

Currently this resource offers:

• Datasets of benchmarks
• Tool which compares domains assigned by different algorithms and generates a consensus domain assignment
• Consensus approach and the construction of benchmark datasets
• Brief description of algorithms used for domain assignments by the currently available methods
• Evaluation and cross-comparison of methods with comprehensive benchmarks
• Issues/insights /future directions associated with partitioning protein structure into domains
