Coarse functional protein classification

Hi, is anyone aware of a database which provides functional protein
classification in broad terms, for example "kinases", "receptors" would be
two protein classes. I've just checked the root terms of InterPro, it was
still too specific for my task.


thanks

Many receptors are also kinases, you know.

There is the EC enzyme nomenclature for classifying enzymes by the
type of reactions they catalyze, but it's only for enzymes and may
not be exactly what you are looking for.

that is true, there is the receptor tyrosine kinases. thanks for the EC
pointer, but it would been great if there were some nomenclanture that
covers the whole human proteome.
thanks

Enzymes are classified by the 6 fundamental reactions they may perform by
the Enzyme Commission (kinases are transferases). You would then have to
further classify non-enzyme proteins, e.g. receptors, structural proteins,
hormons and so on.
