Description: A computing resource (a web server and a database), Repeats in Protein Sequences (RPS), has been created. Using RPS, users can obtain useful information regarding identical, similar and distant repeats in protein sequences, check the frequency of occurrence of the repeats in several sequence databases, and view the three-dimensional structure of the repeats using the Java visualization plug-in Jmol.
