What is the UniProt code?

UniProtKB/TrEMBL entry names The UniProtKB/TrEMBL entry name consists of up to 16 uppercase alphanumeric characters with a naming convention similar to that of UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot, where: Y is a mnemonic species identification code of at most 5 alphanumeric characters.

Is Swiss-Prot and UniProt same?

UniProt provides a comprehensive, high-quality and freely accessible resource of protein sequence and functional information. UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot is a high quality manually annotated (reviewed) and non- redundant protein sequence database, which brings together experimental results and computed features.

What is UniProt database?

The Universal Protein Resource (UniProt) is a comprehensive resource for protein sequence and annotation data. The UniProt databases are the UniProt Knowledgebase (UniProtKB), the UniProt Reference Clusters (UniRef), and the UniProt Archive (UniParc).

Is UniProt a primary database?

Why is UniProt used?

UniProt is the central resource for storing and interconnecting information from large and disparate sources, and the most comprehensive catalog of protein sequence and functional annotation.

Is UniProt a primary database or secondary?

Many data resources have both primary and secondary characteristics. For example, UniProt accepts primary sequences derived from peptide sequencing experiments.

How many protein sequences are in UniProt?

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot has curated over 81 000 variants in 13,000 human protein sequence records from peer-reviewed literature, annotated with information on the functional impact and clinical significance, when known.

Is UniProt a secondary database?

Hybrid databases and families of databases Many data resources have both primary and secondary characteristics. For example, UniProt accepts primary sequences derived from peptide sequencing experiments. Some databases have different ‘branches’ for primary and secondary data.

How many sequences are in UniProt?

INTRODUCTION Release 2021_04 of 29-Sep-2021 of UniProtKB/TrEMBL contains 225013025 sequence entries, comprising 78379501201 amino acids.

Which component of UniProt cover well studied model organisms and phylogeny?

Reference proteomes
Reference proteomes constitute a representative cross-section of the taxonomic diversity to be found within UniProtKB. They include the proteomes of well-studied model organisms and other proteomes of interest for biomedical and biotechnological research.

What is the ‘basket’ in the UniProtKB?

When browsing through different UniProt proteins, you can use the ‘basket’ to save them, so that you can back to find or analyse them later. More… The annotation score provides a heuristic measure of the annotation content of a UniProtKB entry or proteome.
