Category Description

 

Additional Descriptive Information for Depositors

 
For each biomolecule identified in the Molecule Names category, give the 
amino acid or nucleic acid sequence using standard one-letter nomenclature.

All residues in the experiment, including residues missing due to disorder, should be included in the sequence.

Also enter the chain identifiers from your PDB format coordinate file corresponding to each entity. A single entity may have multiple chain_id's if there are multiple molecules of the same sequence in the deposited coordinate set.

The one-letter code sequence derived from your coordinates is displayed by Pre-Deposition Data Format Check. You may copy this result into the "One-letter sequence code" item below and edit as necessary.
