The following table lists the parameters in the Sequence Comparison view.

Sequence Comparison view parameters

Parameter

Description

Sequence table

Displays the complete amino acid sequence of the currently selected protein files. The portions of the sequence that match the searched sequence are highlighted in a color that represents the level of confidence in the identification as follows:

  • Green: Highlighted peptides of high confidence
  • Yellow: Highlighted peptides of medium confidence
  • Red: Highlighted peptides of low confidence

The numbers in the dark blue column to the left of the sequence table and the numbers in the dark blue header on top of the sequence table help you find automatically assigned amino acid numbers in the table. The numbers in the left column are displayed in increments of 100, and the numbers on top of the table, in increments of 10.

Blue column to the left of the sequence table

Displays the accession numbers of the highlighted protein sequences being compared.
