  • RDP: what does (T) mean in sequence identifier?

    Hi There,
    I'm downloading sequences from RDP for genera, and species I'm interested in. Upon downloading I see few sequence identifiers have (T) in them. Example:

    >S002232093 Dialister pneumosintes (T)
    >S000446390 Dialister micraerophilus (T)

    I'm unable to find its information in Help page, or RDP wiki.

    Any pointers would be great.

    Fairly sure that (T) stands for type strain - if you filter, selecting only type strains, all you see are sequences with a (T) subscript.

      Ah, I see. In the beginning from the options:
      Strain - type, non type, both

      I selected both in radio button.

      Thank you very much for your prompt reply, and helping me with this. :-)

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
