Advanced search and protein analysis tools in UniProt
Computational Biology seminar by Gun Antonia Nilsson Lock and Pedro Raposo, EMBL-EBI
Abstract
This webinar explains how researchers can retrieve and analyse protein information using UniProt. It demonstrates advanced queries, BLAST searches, peptide searches, and multiple-sequence alignments, including how to navigate outputs and use functional annotations to interpret them. It also discusses how identifiers, ontologies, and controlled vocabularies organize biological knowledge, and how identifier mapping connects resources. The session is suitable for scientists at any career stage who want to use UniProt or extend their existing skills; undergraduate-level biology knowledge is helpful.
