CustomProteinSearch is a python package containing two independent but complementary programs whose overall objective is to help users to search for specific proteins of interest based on their domain composition: IterHMMBuild and ProSeCDA .

IterHMMBuild is an iterative search method based on the hmmer program, the aim of which is to provide users with a representative HMM protein profile of interest constructed by an iterative enrichment process starting from a small initial set of related protein sequences.

ProSeCDA is a tool that allows to search in a given protein database multiple proteins of interest defined by a user-specified set of domains.
