SwissProt manual annotation Protein sequence • Merge available CDS (coding sequence) • Annotate sequence discrepancies • Report sequencing errors... Biological information • Extract literature information • Orthologue data propagation • Protein sequence analysis...
Problem #1: sequence correction ~20% of Swiss-Prot entries required correction • Typical problems: • Unsolved conflicts (sequencing errors) • Erroneous gene model predictions • Wrong initiation sites • Frameshifts...
Sequence quality from genome projects • Drosophila: • Well-curated • 1.8% of gene models incorrect • Arabidopsis: • Annotated when sequenced, but no update • 19.5% of gene models incorrect • Tetraodon nigroviridis: • Automatic run through (no manual intervention) • >90% of gene models incorrect
Sequence curation Sequencing errors Other examples of sequencing errors include: premature stop codons, read-throughs, erroneous initiator methionines
Problem #2: proteome complexity 1 SwissProt entry = 1 gene (1 species) genome ~20,000 human protein-coding genes proteome >1,000,000 human proteins alternative splicing, alternative initiation, mRNA editing... Post-translational modification transcriptome ~100,000 human transcripts Annotation of sequence differences
Merging entries Because of: • Errors • Erroneous gene model predictions; sequence errors • Natural variation • Polymorphisms; Alternative start sites; Alternative splicing • Multiple entries for the same protein exist in TrEMBL (redundancy) • Apart from 100% identical sequences all merged sequences are analyzed by a curator so they can be annotated accordingly.
Example Multiple alignment of the end of the available GCR sequences: Annotation of the sequence differences (protein diversity):
