PepX contains 505 unique protein-peptide interface clusters from 1431 PDBs, representing the diversity of structural information on protein-peptide complexes available in the Protein Data Bank. 47% of all protein-peptide complexes available from the PDB are clustered within only 10 classes, containing complexes with peptides bound to MHC, thrombins, α-ligand binding domains, SH3 domains, PDZ domains and other (see Figure on the right).
