The Sequence Identification Process + +

+

The first step in the procedure for matching uniprot IDs to + sequences is to use the ID (name) of + each sequence to retrieve Uniprot records directly.

+

+ If a uniprot record (or set of records) is found for a sequence, + then the sequence is aligned to the one in the Uniprot record + to determine the correct start and end residue positions (which are + displayed when the 'Show Full Sequence ID' option is set). +

+ +

If the alignment reveals differences between the sequence in the + alignment and the one in the record, then Jalview will assume that + the aligned sequence is not the one in the uniprot record. + +

+ +

+ In some cases, the ID used to retrieve Uniprot records may be out of + date and you will be notified of that a 100% match between the + sequence and a Uniprot record was identified, but the sequence name + must be manually changed (by right clicking on the sequence ID and selecting + Sequence→Edit Name), before Jalview will show its sequence features.
