Eukaryotic nucleic acid binding protein database (ENPD, http://qinlab.sls.cuhk.edu.hk/ENPD/) is a library of nucleic acid binding proteins (NBPs) and their functional information. NBPs such as DNA binding proteins (DBPs), RNA binding proteins (RBPs), and DNA and RNA binding proteins (DRBPs) are involved in every stage of gene regulation through their interactions with DNA and RNA. Due to the importance of NBPs, the database was constructed based on manual curation and a newly developed pipeline utilizing both sequenced transcriptomes and genomes. In total the database has recorded 2.8 million of NBPs and their binding motifs from 662 NBP families and 2423 species, constituting the largest NBP database. ENPD covers evolutionarily important lineages which have never been included in the previous NBP databases, while lineage-specific NBP family expansions were also found. ENPD also focuses on the involvements of DBPs, RBPs and DRBPs in non-coding RNA (ncRNA) mediated gene regulation. The predicted and experimentally validated targets of NBPs have both been recorded and manually curated in ENPD, linking the interactions between ncRNAs, DNA regulatory elements and NBPs in gene regulation. This database provides key resources for the scientific community, laying a solid foundation for future gene regulatory studies from both functional and evolutionary perspectives.
