title: ATDB 2.0: A database integrated toxin-ion channel interaction data.
abstract: We have developed an updated version of the Animal Toxin Database (ATDB 2.0) that provides a new bioinformatics resource for analyzing toxin-channel (T-C) interactions. Data on more than 54,000 T-C interactions, including 9193 high-confidence interactions, has been extracted, formatted and mapped to toxin and ion channel databases. The interaction data can be accessed easily through a new network browser on the website at http://protchem.hunnu.edu.cn/toxin. This resource may be useful for sequence pattern recognition and prediction of the function of new toxins.
