Subcellular location

Last modified March 13, 2013

This subsection of the ‘General annotation (Comments)’ section provides information on the location and the topology of the mature protein in the cell.

The information contained in this subsection uses a structured hierarchy of controlled vocabulary, except for the ‘Note’ which allows free text.
Example: Q9ULX6

The whole ontology is described, if known. If different locations coexist, they are listed in this subsection and separated by a period.
Example: Q02630, P38182

The subcellular location generally concerns the mature protein. When specific alternative products (isoforms or derived peptides for example) have a specific location, that is clearly indicated.
Example: O43687
