Exploring protein sequences and functional annotations with UniProt

UniProt provides the scientific community with a comprehensive, high-quality and freely accessible resource of protein sequence and functional information. This webinar will guide you through ways in which students and researchers at all career stages may take a structured approach to access the data in the UniProt KnowledgeBase (UniProtKB) section of the UniProt protein function database. We will discuss the types of protein data that can be accessed, and using sequence analysis tools, how this data can be analysed to answer biological questions. We will demonstrate how to find the function of a protein, how the protein components of a pathway may be identified, features of proteins of interest can be compared, similar sections of sequence can be sought in other species and how whole data sets containing all the proteins expressed in an organism can be obtained. By accessing sequence, structural and functional data through UniProt, we want researchers to be part of a journey through biology and support further work and adventures along the way! Who is this webinar for? This webinar is suitable for students or early career researchers beginning to use bioinformatics resources in their studies/research who wish to learn more about UniProt. No prior knowledge of bioinformatics is required, but undergraduate level knowledge of biology would be useful. Outcomes By the end of the webinar you will be able to: Describe what UniProt can be used for Search the UniProt website and analyse protein data DOI: 10.6019/TOL.UniProt_1November23-w.2023.00001.1 Presented by Paul Denny and Emily Bowler-Barnett Recorded on 1st November 2023
