Residue annotation from services

Sequence features are annotations of sequence positions indicating for example signal peptides, disulfide bonds, glycosylated or phosphorylated amino acids. In Strap they are loaded from the sequence file, from UniProt or from the Catalytic Site Atlas at the EBI. They used to be loaded also from BioDAS* servers, until BioDAS became unavailable. Annotated sequences are underlined in the alignment panel and in the alignment output. They have a context menu (right-click), a balloon message and they can be dragged to other sequences or 3D-views.

The Table

The table lists the residue annotations of all sequences. Each table row gives the color, the name such as "Metal binding". With check-boxes in each row the user can control where they are displayed. The following explains the table columns in detail:

Colors

Each annotation type has a color for black background (screen), and one for white background (paper). These colors can be customized in the context menu.

Mouse-control

The following mouse actions apply to the residue annotation in the table and in the alignment panel.

Deactivated annotations

Deactivated annotations are hidden. Reasons why annotations are deactivated:

Examples

The following SwissProt entries have many annotations and can be used for testing/demonstration: UNIPROT:Q9Y4K3   UNIPROT:Q9H9D4   UNIPROT:Q05516   UNIPROT:P28825   UNIPROT:P08045   UNIPROT:Q13105 #if CPP_DEACTIVATED ftp://ftp.psb.ugent.be/pub/ssb/so.rdf.gz Todo Q9UHG2 Peptide and region s8stdout -align=UNIPROT:hslv_ecoli -script="uniprot_features * " #endif //CPP_DEACTIVATED *@
