The Sulfolobus database FAQ
Q: What does -1 mean in the stop position?
A: Since the length of sequences in the database varies a '-1' in the stop postion corresponds to the end of the selected sequence.
Q: Why are some genes boxed and others not?
A: Boxed genes either originate from the GenBank
file and have the original annotation or have been annotated after
the genome publication. The unboxed genes have been perdicted as
coding but no tverified and are not annotated.
Q: How do I make corrections to the database?
A: Either you acquire an account. These are only
for researchers that want to add or correct annotations them
self. Otherwise please contact us with the information and we will
make the alterations for you. In both cases please contact: dbs@dac.molbio.ku.dk.
Q: Will my additions to the database delete old annotation ?
A: No, the new information will be shown along with
the previous ones sorted by date. The name of the person that made
the correction, or asked for the correction to be made, will be
visible for each alteration.
