Hi Fergus,
You can use the "pattern search" page from our web site at:
http://pir.georgetown.edu/pirwww/search/patmatch.html
Option 2 "Search a query pattern against a sequence database" allows
you to search user-defined patterns or Prosite patterns against PIR
protein sequence database or iProClass database of PIR and Swiss-Prot
sequences.
