Terms
| Explanations |
| Entry | Entry number in the database |
| Protein name | Name of the protein. Multiple words can be entered with spaces. Wild card can also be used: * for a string of characters and ? for a character. If * and ? were to be used as real characters, place "\" (backslash) before them. |
| Source | Name of the organism. |
| Length | length of the peptide |
| Uniprot-id | Reference code given in Uniprot protein sequence database. |
| EC number | Enzyme Commission number |
| PDB-id | Protein Data Bank Code |
| Mutation | Details about the mutation: residue in wild type, residue number and residue in mutant protein (e.g. A 123 G). In the case of insertion or deletion mutations, all inserted/deleted residues appear along with the preceding residue that corresponds to the residue number at which the mutation occurs (for example, A 378 AVL refers that the two amino acid residues "V" and "L" are inserted at 378th position where the residue "A" is present in the wild type, and it is represented conversely for the deletion, viz, AVL 378 A). The mutation residue number is given as in the reference. In some cases, the residue number may not match with PIR and PDB sequences. In such cases, the residue numbers corresponding to PIR and PDB sequences are also given in the parenthesis. |
| Secondary structure | Secondary Structural Information for the mutation site (Helix, Strand, Turn and Coil; we obtain the data from PDB) In search result : H = Helix, S = Strand, T = Turn, C = Coil. |
| ASA | The accessible surface area (ASA) or solvent-accessible surface area (SASA) is the surface area of a biomolecule that is accessible to a solvent |
| Temperature | Temperature at which experimental data are obtained. |
| pH | pH at which the experiments were performed. |
| Buffer name | Name of the buffer used in the experiment |
| Buffer concentration | Concentration of the buffer |
| Ion name | Name of the ion used in the experiment |
| Ion concentration | Concentration of the ion |
| Additives | Details about the additives (e.g. glycerol) |
| Protein concentration | Concentration of the protein when the experiment has been performed |
| Measure | The experiments performed to measure the thermodynamic parameters (eg)Fluorescence spectroscopy. Keywords: Fl. |
| Method | Experimental method to obtain aggregation rates such as Tht, Congo Red. |
| Aggregation rate | Experimental data on aggregation k(agg): aggregation rate |
| Parameter | k(app): apparent growth rate; Experimental data on aggregation k(agg): aggregation rate |
| Δ aggregation rate | Δ aggregation rate= aggregation rate(mutant)-aggregation rate(wild) |
| Keyword | List of keywords used for the specific protein/article Multiple words can be entered with spaces. Wild card can also be used: * for a string of characters and ? for a character. If * and ? were to be used as real characters, place "\" (backslash) before them. These can be combined with AND and OR logical operations to form more complex patterns. |
| Reference | Complete reference of the article with a link to NCBI database with PMID |
| Authur | Name of the authors. Multiple words can be entered with spaces. Wild card can also be used: * for a string of characters and ? for a character. If * and ? were to be used as real characters, place "\" (backslash) before them. These can be combined with AND and OR logical operations to form more complex patterns. |
| PMID | Pubmed ID |
| Remarks | Some specific comments( if any) |
| Year | Year of publication. |
