SCOP / CATH or other structural feature enrichment analyses using proteins

I am working on a proteomics dataset. I am looking for a tool or service to enrichment analyses using protein IDs as query and provide the class, family, superfamily or fold terms (or class, architecture, topology or hierarchy) as output of enrichment analytics

DAVID had an implementation using SCOP in the past, but after the recent update - they removed it. It was a very useful utility for our drug discovery and nanobioinformatics projects.

I am wondering if there is any other tools/service or package out there to do such protein structure-based annotation and enrichment analyses. Thanks!

You probably need something similar to PFam.

This is around now-a-days.

Pfam is what am using at the moment. But, Pfam is at the level of domains which is equivalent to SCOP domains/family. I am more in interested in the higher order classification like superfamily and folds. dcGOR is interesting but won't do an enrichment over proteins, once I have set of SCOP data elements, it does some mapping to GO, etc. Other links/posts are not relevant.

Have you looked at PFAM clans ? My understanding is that they roughly correspond to SCOP superfamilies.
