A typical Pfam family page. At the top of every Pfam page are six links (Home, Search, Browse, FTP, Help and About), each of which is described in the main text. The “Jump to” box and the “Keyword” search are available on most Pfam pages. The context-specific icons at the top of the page indicate the number of different architectures, the number of sequence segments in the full alignment, the number of documented interactions, the number of different species represented in the full alignment and the number of PDB chain IDs that can be displayed for the family concerned. Each tab gives access to different data, details of which can be found in the main text. As illustrated here for the Piwi family (Pfam accession PF02171), this “Summary” tab displays the Wikipedia article. The “Clans” tab is not grayed out, indicating that Piwi is part of a clan.
