  Viral Sequence

Relevant feature information for a viral sequence:
  • coding region intervals, including start and stop codons, if present
  • protein name
  • gene name, if known
  • amino acid sequence, if known

    OR

  • if no coding region is present, other description of the sequence

We strongly suggest that you provide as much of the above information as possible to ensure the most complete annotation of your sequence. If any of this information is not known, please inform us.

Example:

Measles virus isolate DK5 hemagglutinin (H) gene, 
complete cds.
