The April 4, 2014 release offers the following new features: (Click here to download this version of the data )
The core data of the MimoDB database are mimotope sets and related information such as sequences, structures, targets, templates and libraries. Peptides are grouped into a mimotope set if they are from the same independent experiment. In the current release, 22,078 peptides grouped into 2,405 sets are collected from 1,143 published papers. Among the 22,078 peptides in MimoDB, 19,610 peptides appear only in one mimotope set; however, there are 963 peptides appearing in two or more mimotope sets for 2,468 times in total.

Target:
There are 1448 different targets in the current version of MimoDB. Besides 114 target with undetermined sources and 135 targets with no sources (such as cellulose, polystyrene, microplate, etc.), most of the targets are from Homo sapiens (Human) and Mus musculus (Mouse). The source of some targets are a hybrid of two ore more species.

Template:
For most of the peptides in the MimoDB database, their templates are not or even can not be determined. Thus, there are only 461 templates identified.
