The Transporter Classification Database (or TCDB) is an International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB) approved classification system for membrane transport proteins including ion channels. This classification system was designed to be analogous to the EC number system for classifying enzymes, but it also uses phylogenetic information.
This WikiProject is an effort to integrate information from this database into Wikipedia as appropriate.
Project
The TCDB team proposes to add TCDB family descriptions to Wikipedia either by integrating the content of existing pages or by creating entirely new ones. This will allow people searching for this information to find it more easily and for TCDB to reach a much wider audience. At the same time, the Wikipedia-published family descriptions will serve as 'seed' topics where scientists all over the world can share insight and expand on our current understandings. This approach has been successfully pioneered by databases such as Rfam and Pfam, and we will rely on our Pfam collaborators to help us find the most effective way to add our descriptions to Wikipedia, to the benefit of Wikipedia users, TCDB, and everyone interested in biochemistry.
