Sequence requirements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Only amino acid (cDNA) sequences obtained from sequencing mRNA (such as by cDNA cloning, RT-PCR, or RNAseq) can be named.  mRNA sequences obtained solely by gene prediction computer software from genome sequences are not sufficient and will not be named.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Submitted sequences must contain the conserved UGT protein sequence domain. This can be checked at the National Library of Medicine site<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. At least 350 amino acid residues (minimum) must be submitted to enable unambiguous comparisons with existing UGT sequences.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Organism genus and species information must be provided to facilitate analysis using the appropriate Kingdom group and to differentiate allelic variants (same species) from orthologous genes (different species).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Format for submission<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Please download the UGT Sequence Submission Form here and provide the following information (corresponding to the columns)<\/a>:<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. *A temporary unique name for each UGT (the name you currently use for this UGT; e.g. Felis_catus_UGT1)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. *Organism scientific name (genus\/species)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Common  name used for the organism<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Nucleotide ID (NCBI Genbank cDNA number) if known; otherwise leave blank<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Protein ID (NCBI Genbank protein number) if known; otherwise leave blank<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Gene ID (NCBI Genbank gene number) if known; otherwise leave blank<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    7. Submitter or researcher name<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    8. Submission date<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    9. Any comments<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    10. Sequence length (needs to be at least 350 aa); shorter sequences will not be named<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    11. *Amino acid sequence (in one cell – no spaces – no line returns – no stop codon)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      *Required information<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Leave cell empty if any information is unknown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Submit sequences by email<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Send file with a brief request message to Dr Michael Court<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      You will normally receive an acknowledgment of receipt within ~2 working days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Most requests are completed within 1 to 2 weeks.  For a large number of sequences (>30) it will take longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Please note that this is done on a volunteer basis as a service to the scientific community and so your patience is greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":79,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"wsuwp_university_location":[],"wsuwp_university_org":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/23"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/79"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/23\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":216,"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/23\/revisions\/216"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"wsuwp_university_location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wsuwp_university_location?post=23"},{"taxonomy":"wsuwp_university_org","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labs.wsu.edu\/ugt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wsuwp_university_org?post=23"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
