What is the UniProt ID?

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 is the UniProt accession number?

This subsection of the ‘Entry information’ section provides one or more accession number(s). These are stable identifiers and should be used to cite UniProtKB entries. Upon integration into UniProtKB, each entry is assigned a unique accession number, which is called ‘Primary (citable) accession number’.

Is Gene ID the same as accession number?

In contrast, GI numbers are assigned consecutively and bear no resemblance to the accession number. Finally, the new system allows the assignment of alphanumeric protein IDs to proteins translations within nucleotide sequence records.

What is the difference between version number and GI number?

The version number (U49845. 1) and GI (1293613) are unique identifiers for the sequence data within a record. If any change occurs to the sequence data, no matter how large or small, the version number for that sequence is incremented by one decimal and a new GI number is assigned.

How do you convert Entrez ID to gene symbol?

You can convert Entrez ID into gene name by using website called “MatchMiner” (http://discover.nci.nih.gov/matchminer/MatchMinerLookup.jsp). All you need to do is to upload a file that contains all your Entrez IDs. This website will convert them into HUGO gene names.

Can you reference UniProt?

https://www.uniprot.org/uniparc/UPI00000002E4. Remarks: A UniProtKB accession number (AC) is a stable identifier and therefore allows unambiguous citation of a UniProtKB entry. This is not the case for the ‘Entry name’.

Is UniProt a primary or secondary database?

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

What is an accession ID?

Definition. A unique alphanumeric character string that is used to unambiguously identify a particular record in a database. Examples include MGI accession IDs, GenBank accession IDs, and PubMed accession IDs.

What is a gene name in UniProt?

They are IDs referred to as gene names and are used across a variety of databases including Uniprot. Note in section 2 of the ID mapping that I have set the left option to “gene name”. “STRING” won’t work. Show activity on this post. The first answer is good!

What is a gene name?

They are IDs referred to as gene names and are used across a variety of databases including Uniprot. Note in section 2 of the ID mapping that I have set the left option to “gene name”.

What is David gene accession conversion tool?

DAVID Gene Accession Conversion Tool. 1. Introduction. This tool was built based on the “DAVID Gene Concept”, a graph theory evidence-based method to agglomerate species-specific gene/protein identifiers the most popular resources including NCBI, PIR and Uniprot/SwissProt.

What is the David Gene Concept?

1. Introduction This tool was built based on the “DAVID Gene Concept”, a graph theory evidence-based method to agglomerate species-specific gene/protein identifiers from the most popular resources including NCBI, Ensembl and UniProt.
