tblLAB_RES_LVL_1 - Nucleotide sequences (PRO, RT, GP41, GP120)

holds nucleoside sequence for the PRO and RT sequences

Core Fields

Note: Fields marked bold form the unique identifier for a record of the table.

Field name Format Description
TEST_ID character (or numeric if possible) Identifier linking this record to tblLAB_RES
SEQTYPE

character:

  • PRO = PRO sequence
  • RT = RT sequence
  • GP41 = GP41 sequence
  • GP120 = GP120 sequence
Type of nucleotide sequence if available
SEQ_START numeric Start position for the sequence
SEQ_STOP numeric Stop position for the sequence
SEQ_NUC character Nucleotide sequence if available

Additional Fields

In cases where the amino acid sequence is collected rather than the nucleotide sequence, the field SEQ_NUC might be replaced with SEQ_AA, which is the nucleotide sequence, expressed in an amino acid sequence:

Field name Format Description
SEQ_AA character Amino acid sequence if available (empty if test was phenotype)

However using the amino acid sequence does not give the same detail of data as the nucleoside sequence: wobbles in the nucleoside sequence can either complicate the reading and alignment of the amino acid sequence or the wobbles can be lost and silent mutations are lost.
