What are the automatic changes conducted by the tool during WIPO ST.25 import?
ST.25 numeric identifier | Transformation performed by the tool |
160 | Discard element 160 (number of SEQ ID numbers) |
170 | Discard element 170 (Software used) |
210 | Element 210: set sequence identifier (SEQ ID) |
n.a. | Set sequence name. |
211 | Set sequence length to value of <211> |
212 | Replace molecule type (i) 'ADN' with 'DNA', (ii) 'ARN' with 'RNA' |
212 | Replace molecule type 'PRT' with 'AA' |
213 | Replace ‘Artificial Sequence’ and specified equivalents with ‘synthetic construct’ |
213 | Replace FR and DE translations of ‘Artificial Sequence’ and specified equivalents (‘Séquence artificielle’, ‘Künstliche Sequenz’) with ‘synthetic construct’ |
213 | Replace ‘Unknown’ and specified equivalents with ‘unidentified’ |
213 | Replace FR and DE translations of ‘Unknown’ and specified equivalents (‘inconnu’, ‘unbekannt’) with ‘unidentified’ |
221 | Replace obsolete feature key with recommended key (Scenario 8, ST.26, Annex VII) |
221 | Replace custom feature key with recommended key (Scenario 12, ST.26, Annex VII) |
221 | Replace VARSPLIC key with VAR_SEQ (Scenario 13, ST.26, Annex VII) |
221 | Skip transformation of feature key if 1) molecule type is PRT and 2) feature key is NOT valid ST.26 and 3) the tool can’t determine whether the location is a single position or a range of positions |
222 | Clean feature location value provided (i.e., remove parentheses, replace invalid separator, reduce redundant ranges) |
222 (negative value) | If negative numbering in PRT sequence, the feature location need to be corrected (see Scenario 16, ST.26, Annex VII). |
222 (missing) | Provide a warning that feature location is missing in import report OR does it provide a feature location of 1..sequence length |
223 | Import value of 223 after replacing the obsolete feature key with recommended key (Scenario 8, ST.26, Annex VII) |
223 | Import value of 223 after replacing custom feature key with recommended key (Scenario 12, ST.26, Annex VII). |
223 | Import 223 after replacing VARSPLIC key with VAR_SEQ (Scenario 13, ST.26, Annex VII). |
300-313 | Discard publication information provided |
400 | Replace ‘u’ with ‘t’ in RNA sequence. |
400 | Replace ‘u’ with ‘t’ in DNA sequence. |
400 | Replace amino acid symbols in 3-letter code with 1-letter code. |
400 | Provide a warning that the annotation of 'Xaa' symbols must be reviewed in the import report |
400 | Set skipped indicator to ‘yes’ for those with a 400 value of '000' |
n.a. | Create mandatory source/SOURCE feature for each sequence that: 1) is NOT intentionally skipped and 2) does NOT already have a source feature. |
n.a. | Set value of qualifier /mol_type for ‘synthetic construct’ and protein sequences |
n.a. | Notify the user to set the value of qualifier /mol_type. |
n.a. | Notify the user to set/review the value of the mandatory qualifier |
