UniProtKB News

New mouse and zebrafish variation files

We would like to announce the release of two additional species, mouse and zebrafish, to the set of variation files available in the dedicated variants directory on the UniProt FTP sites. Both files catalogue protein altering Single Nucleotide Variants (SNVs or SNPs), stop-gained and stop-lost variants for UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot and UniProtKB/TrEMBL sequences of each species. These variants have been automatically mapped to UniProtKB sequences, including isoform sequences, through Ensembl. We very much welcome the feedback of the community on our efforts.

Structuring of ‘cofactor’ annotations

We have structured the previously free text cofactor annotations in UniProtKB and mapped individual cofactors to ChEBI identifiers.

Changes to the controlled vocabulary of human diseases
