Short description:

Immune system is a complex machinery, which is based on the highly coordinated expression of a wide array of genes and proteins. Internet resource called Immumome was constructed for the characterisation of the human immune system. Immumome contains information about immunity related proteins, their domain structure and the related ontology terms. Information can be found also about the localization of the coding genesand their comparison with the existing mouse orthologs. In addition links to the ImmTree database are also included for phylogenetic trees for orthologs from species.
