neXtProt is an on-line knowledge platform on human proteins.It strives to be a comprehensive resource that provides a variety oftypes of information on human proteins, such as their function, subcellular location, expression, interactions and role in diseases.The major part of the information in neXtProt[2] is obtained from the UniProt Swiss-Prot database but it is complemented by data originating from high-throughput studies with an emphasis on proteomics. neXtProt offers also an advanced search capacity based on the SPARQL technology as well as an API that allows to programmatically extract the data stored in the resource. It is developed by the CALIPHO group[3] directed by Amos Bairoch and Lydie Lane of the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics (SIB).
