Abstract
One of the distinguishing criteria of the SWISS-PROT protein sequence data bank is minimal redundancy. The introduction of TrEMBL as a supplementary d atabase ensured the comprehensiveness of SWISS-PROT and TrEMBL but introduc ed some degree of redundancy, We developed a strategy to identify the redun dancy present within and between SWISS-PROT and TrEMBL and its subsequent r emoval.
