FlyBase:Sequence Feature Report

Last Updated: 24 June 2015

The Sequence Feature Report contains the information for an individual sequence feature. This includes many different types of features, for example: region, regulatory region, enhancer, silencer, insulator, TF_binding_site, protein_binding_site, TSS, exon_junction, origin_of_replication, modified_RNA_base_feature (A-to-I editing site).

This is a field-by-field guide to the information provided in the Sequence Feature Report.

FlyBase attributes data to the publication that reported it, so that users can easily refer back to the original publication if they wish. Thus, where possible in the fields below, the publication(s) that are the source of the information are listed, typically in parentheses to the right of the data.

General Information

Symbol	The valid symbol that is used in FlyBase.
Species	The organism that the sequence feature originates from, with the initial letter of the genus and the full species name listed.
Feature Type	The type of sequence feature described in the report.
FlyBase ID	The Primary FlyBase identifier number of the sequence feature, used to uniquely identify the sequence feature in the database. A sequence feature may also have any number of Secondary FlyBase identifier numbers, which are listed in the Secondary FlyBase IDs section of the Sequence feature Report.
Collection	The large scale dataset or reagent collection of which this sequence feature is a member.
Associated gene(s)	Genes associated with this sequence feature.

Genomic Location

Chromosome Arm	The chromosome arm that the sequence is located on.
Sequence location	The genomic location of the sequence feature: arm:start..stop [strand].
Map	A GBrowse thumbnail showing the sequence feature (highlighted in yellow) in relation to other genes and sequence features. A link to the region shown in GBrowse is provided at the left.

Recent Updates

This section contains items that were added to this record for each release. It currently only tracks new links between this FlyBase report and other FlyBase data classes (e.g. genes, references, stocks) or controlled vocabulary terms (e.g. GO, anatomy terms).

Sequence Data

Length	The size (nucleotides) of the sequence feature.
Comments	Comments on the sequence feature's size.
Sequence	Nucleotide sequence of the feature (FASTA).

Associated Information

Gene(s) (targeted or local)	Genes associated with the sequence feature.
Allele(s)	Alleles associated with the sequence feature.
Transcripts(s)	Transcripts associated with the sequence feature.
Polypeptide(s)	Polypeptides associated with the sequence feature.
Construct	Constructs associated with the sequence feature.

Experimental Data

Progenitors

This section applies to reagents generated in vitro: for example, "RNAi_reagent".

PCR template	Source of PCR template (genomic or cDNA).
Primer 1	Left primer used in PCR.
Primer 2	Right primer used in PCR.
