Ensembl Identifiers in ProPhylER

You can use either gene or protein identifiers. What's the difference? One gene may give rise to several proteins by alternative splicing, so for one gene identifier there may be several protein identifiers, one per splice isoform. For example, human Jagged2/Serrate2 is gene ENSG00000184916, which encodes proteins ENSP00000328169 and ENSP00000328566.

Be aware that ProPhylER currently uses only one splice isoform in its alignments and analyses. You may find that ProPhylER uses a different isoform from the one that you specified in your search.

Examples of Ensembl IDs by Species

You need to input the entire identifier exactly to get a match in ProPhylER.

Uniprot Identifiers in ProPhylER

Below are a few examples of Uniprot IDs. Note that they are all six characters long, with a mix of letters and numbers and starting with a letter.

ProPhylER Cluster Identifiers

are just numbers.

Chromosome Coordinates (Human only, assembly hg 18 only)

Only those coordinates that correspond to a nucleotide in a codon will return results. Noncoding coordinates will not return results. The results do not inform about whether your SNP changes an amino acid, or which amino acid is changed. ProPhylER's results are agnostic to the state of human polymorphisms, reporting MAPP values of all possible amino acids, not just those that are accessible by a single nucleotide change in the position that you queried with.

Here are some Chr:Coordinate; values to test.
