FPBase and Talley Lambert ( twitter.com/talleyjlambert ) are both awesome. I'm a physicist working with fluorescence microscopy, and I use tools that Talley developed or contributed to all the time.

Which reminds me, also check out napari.org for a nice viewing/annotation tool for N-dimensional numpy arrays.

FPBase is a model for what open-access academic databases should look like for novel protein sequences.

It's a thankless job to do all of the comparisons/reviews of proteins with similar functions. And then even more of a challenge to take that hard-earned data and make it accessible and immediately useful. But it is foundational to moving the field forward.

Thank you, and keep up the good work.

Really amazing resource that I’ve used before when pulling FP sequences. I really wish there were more bio databases like it! Simple, clean, great
