With the development of protein structure prediction methods and biological experimental determination techniques, the structure of single-domain proteins can be relatively easier to be modeled or experimentally solved. However, more than 80% of eukaryotic proteins and 67% of prokaryotic proteins contain multiple domains. Constructing a unified multi-domain protein structure database will promote the research of multi-domain proteins, especially in the modeling of multi-domain protein structures. In this work, we develop a unified multi-domain protein structure database (MPDB). Based on MPDB, we also develop a server with two functional modules: (1) the culling module, which filters the whole MPDB according to input criteria; (2) the detection module, which identifies structural analogues of the full-chain according to the structural similarity between input domain models and the protein in MPDB. The module can discover the potential analogue structures, which will contribute to high-quality multi-domain protein structure modeling.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
