Greetings, I downloaded the human genome database from
ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nih.gov/1000gen...k_v37.fasta.gz
I expected only 'A, C, T, G, N' in the fasta file, however I found a 'M' in it.
# grep M human_g1k_v37.fasta
CGCTACATAGCTGMCTTATTATTCGTGGTCCCCTATGACCCCCTGATCATTTTCCCTGAG
>MT gi|251831106|ref|NC_012920.1| Homo sapiens mitochondrion, complete genome
I learnt that the 'M' might represent amino [wiki], but I am wondering whether the 'M' should exist in the human_g1k_v37.fasta file here?
