BriX

BriX is a structural classification of protein fragments. The library comprises fragments ranging from 4 to 14 amino acids that are clustered against 6 different distance thresholds. This has lead to an alphabet of around 2000 frequently observed letters or structural classes per chain length. These classes are accessible through a search and a browse interface.

BriX is being developed by Joost Schymkowitz and Frederic Rousseau and their team at the SWITCH Laboratory of VIB in Brussels, Belgium, in collaboration with Luis Serrano and his team at the CRG in Barcelona, Spain.
