MEROPS is an online database for peptidases (also known as proteases, proteinases and proteolytic enzymes) and their inhibitors.[2] The classification scheme for peptidases was published by Rawlings & Barrett in 1993,[3] and that for protein inhibitors by Rawlings et al. in 2004.[4] The most recent version, MEROPS 12.4, was released in late October 2021.[5]
