is a Data Source.

SCOP (Structural Classification of Proteins) is a classification of protein domains based on their structural and evolutionary relationships. It organizes domains of known three-dimensional structure into a hierarchy that reflects both structural similarity and evolutionary origin.

SCOP

SCOP (Structural Classification of Proteins) provides a comprehensive, largely manual classification of protein domains of known three-dimensional structure. Domains are grouped into a hierarchy of types, classes, folds, superfamilies, and families that captures both structural similarity and inferred evolutionary relationships.

Content includes:

  • Hierarchical classification of protein structural domains
  • Family- and superfamily-level evolutionary relationships
  • Representative domains linked to entries in the Protein Data Bank

GeneCards integrates protein structural classification data from SCOP.
