NemFam
NemFam (Nematode-derived protein Families) is a collection of nematode related,
conserved regions of proteins that were not (when originally built) represented in Pfam. Over
214,000 polypeptides from 32 nematode species (27 of which are parasites of vertebrates or plants)
were grouped into families using a clustering method that relies on the Markov Cluster Algorithm
(MCL). Families were then multiply aligned, and those families having at least 10% of their
full alignment length represented by at least 3 overlapping nematode species became candidate
members of NemFam. These candidates were then screened against Pfam, and those with no members
hitting Pfam were assembled into the final NemFam set.
