How do I find my UniProt protein ID?
Select the Retrieve/ID mapping tab of the toolbar and enter or upload a list of identifiers (or gene names) to do one of the following: Retrieve the corresponding UniProt entries to download them or work with them on this website.
How do you retrieve a protein sequence from UniProt?
Retrieving sequences from the website
- Perform your favorite query and view the resulting list of entries (e.g. this query retrieves all UniProtKB entries that are part of the human proteome: proteome:UP000005640)
- Click the Download button in the query result page.
Which of these is a UniProt identifier?
The proteome identifier (UPID) is the unique identifier assigned to the set of proteins that constitute the proteome. It consists of the characters ‘UP’ followed by 9 digits, is stable across releases and can therefore be used to cite a UniProt proteome.
Where can I find protein sequence?
The protein sequence can also be found by clicking on the protein accession number in the Nucleotide record or in the RefSeq section of the Gene record.
Is a secondary database?
Secondary databases make use of publicly available sequence data in primary databases to to provide layers of information to DNA or protein sequence data. Secondary databases comprise data derived from analysing entries in primary databases.
How to retrieve a list of UniProt entries?
Select the Retrieve/ID mapping tab of the toolbar and enter or upload a list of identifiers (or gene names) to do one of the following: Retrieve the corresponding UniProt entries to download them or work with them on this website.
Where to find sequence annotations in UniProtKB?
Sequence annotations (position-specific annotations) used to be found in the ‘Sequence annotation (Features)’ section in the previous version of the UniProtKB entry view. The flat file and XML formats still group all position-specific annotation together in a “feature table” (FT, ).
Do you need to download UniProtKB identifiers for go?
If you prefer to run your mapping locally, you can also download the data underlying this service. For performance reasons, databases where the mapping relationship to UniProtKB identifiers is one-to-many, e.g. GO, InterPro or PubMed, are not supported.
How are GO terms assigned in the UniProtKB?
GO terms can be manually or electronically assigned to a UniProtKB entry: Manually assigned GO terms found in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot are associated with one of 15 GO evidence codes, as well as with a link to the relevant publication, when available. These GO annotations are tagged with a yellow source/evidence label.
