Heart 2-D protein databases

There are four gel protein databases of cardiac proteins, established by three independent groups, that can be accessed via the World Wide Web (Table 16.1). These databases facilitate proteomic research into heart diseases containing information on several hundred cardiac proteins that have been identified by protein chemical methods. They all conform to the rules for federated 2-D protein databases (Appel et al., 1996). In addition, 2-D protein databases for other mammals, such as the mouse, rat (li et al., 1999), dog (Dimn et al., 1997), pig and cow, are also under construction to support work on animal models of heart disease and heart failure.
