MineProt: modern application for custom protein curation

TL;DR

MineProt is a user-friendly, open-source platform that enables researchers to easily curate, annotate, visualize, and share large-scale protein structure data generated by AI systems like AlphaFold.

Contribution

It introduces a comprehensive, easy-to-use tool for custom protein data management, supporting high-throughput data curation and extending functionality through plugins.

Findings

Supports building personalized protein servers

Enables efficient annotation and visualization of protein data

Facilitates data sharing in structural proteomics

Abstract

AI systems represented by AlphaFold are rapidly expanding the scale of protein structure modelling data, and the MineProt project provides an effective solution for custom curation of these novel high-throughput data. It enables researchers to build their own protein server in simple steps, run almost out-of-the-box scripts to annotate and curate their proteins, visualize, browse and search their data via a user-friendly online interface, and utilize plugins to extend the functionality of server. It is expected to support researcher productivity and facilitate data sharing in the new era of structural proteomics. MineProt is open-sourced at https://github.com/huiwenke/MineProt.
