SMART (a Simple Modular Architecture Research Tool) is an online tool which allows the identification of <a href="Protein domain">protein domains</a> and the analysis of domain architecture.

You may use either a Uniprot Ensembl sequence identifier (ID) / accession number (ACC) or the protein sequence itself to perform the SMART analysis service.

Using the accession number or the name of a known protein domain, SMART will allow you to search a particular domain, and give you a detailed description of this domain.
