Dear Kinomer user,

We are currently seeking grant funding to support further development of the Kinomer server and database. As part of this application, we have to include letters of support from the community of people who use Kinomer. If you find Kinomer useful, please take a few minutes to write to us and say what you think on: support_kinomer@bartongroup.org. In your email, please include your name, status (Ph.D. student, postdoc, Director, PI etc), organisation, and address (including country).

Thank you very much for your help,

Kinomer v. 1.0
Welcome to Kinomer
Protein kinases are enzymes which add phosphate groups to proteins. They are important in biological processes such as cell signalling and can be divided into a number of groups based on function and the similarity of the amino acid sequence.
Kinomer is a multilevel HMM library that models these protein kinase groups. It allows accurate identification of protein kinases and classification to the appropriate kinase group.
