Abstract
Searching for information about enzymes, receptors, and other biochemical data is a painstaking task for chemists even in well-equipped libraries. The World Wide Web (WWW), also called the information superhighway, offers now an alternative approach, which is especially advantageous for homology modeling. Browsers like Mosaic and Netscape support quick access to a variety of sites and databanks (for example, the Brookhaven Data Bank and the Swiss Protein Data Bank) and help to download programs and files (tertiary structures, protein sequences) in a convenient way. Form-based searches and the presence of tools (alignments, structure prediction) on the web contribute to further time savings.
