N-linked glycosylation (GlcNac):

Look at the Swiss-Prot annotation (in a random ‘glycosylated’ entry)

Query:

annotation:(type:carbohyd "N-linked (GlcNAc...)" confidence:experimental) reviewed:yes

Taxonomic distribution

TPNLINDTME

Multiple alignment (ClustalW)

-[LAPIQ]-N-[HAYRCS]-[ST]-[KLESGM]

N-glycosylation does not occur in Bacteria: …false positive !

301 protein (within the set of 1000 proteins) are N-glycosylated according to the UniProtKB annotation…!

Scan Prosite with the official pattern

The official pattern also match with bacteria sequences (false positives)

PRATT pattern with 20 sequencesD-K-T-G-T-[IL]-T-x(3)-[ILMV]-x-[FILV]

AT31_HUMAN:

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the cation transport ATPase (P-type) family. Type V subfamily. The pattern is a discriminator for ATP ase family (Cation-transporting )

C-x(2,4)-C-x(3)-[LIVMFYWC]-x(8)-H-x(3,5)-H

Pattern scan

The pattern missed some Zn finger in the same proteini.e. Q24174

Pattern

Profile

Not found with the pattern

The pattern:

C - X(2,4) - C - X(3) - [LIVMFYWC] - X(8) - H - X(3,5) – H

Should includes:

YRCVLCGTVAKSRNSLHSHMSrQHRGIST

C-X(2,4)-C-X(3)-[LIVMFYWCA]-X(8)-H-X(3,5)-H

Yes !

But:

The pattern becomes less restrictive.You get more sequences which should not be here.(As the results are limited to 1000, the number of hits is not the same…)

Discriminators (Signatures, descriptors) for the Zinc finger C2H2 type domain can be found in Prosite (Pattern and Profile) and Pfam (HMM)

Step 1: scan UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot with the patternUse the ‘scanprosite’ tool at http://www.expasy.org/tools/scanprosite/

Step 2: Retrieve the matched human entries @ UniProt(go at the end of the Scan Prosite result page: click on ‘Matched UniProtKB entries’)

Step 3: Retrieve the sequences annotated as being ‘phosphorylated on a Thr’

-> 19 candidates to be manually checked ….

Blast @ NCBI against Swiss-Prot

NCBI: Color key for alignment scores

NCBI Swiss-Prot does not contain the alternative sequences (i.e. P28175-2) –!! NCBI gives the ‘version number’ of the Swiss-Prot sequence (i.e. Q8BU25.2)….

UniProt: Color code for identity scores (not alignment !)

UniProt: Color code for identity scores (not alignment !)

ProDom databaseList of proteins sharing at least a common domain…

1) BLAST at www.uniprot.org

2) PROSITE tools

You are lucky: domains are rarely not annotated in the different domain/family databases !

3) Construct a profile with My hits at SIBUse PSI Blast

Do a PSI BLAST against UniProtKB

Select sequence with a E value > 0.001 and do a second cycle

- Look at the Goloco data in InterPro. How many proteins (and/or hits) are found by the different methods ?

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/interpro/

According to InterPro: Goloco domain is described by at least one of the different methods (PFAM, Prosite, Smart)

PFAM: 167 proteins Prosite: 192 proteinsSMART:  1 proteins These different numbers are the consequence of the interval between the different releases of the different databases (including the sequence databases (UniProtKB). It may also be due to the different methods used (HMM, profile…)
