IPD-KIR Sequence Feature Annotation Tool

The IPD-KIR Database provides a tool to allow users to annotate sequences to support submission of data to the database. The Sequence Feature Annotation Tool has two entry points. This page documents the web based user interface. For information on the REST API please see our Annotation API Help

The IPD-KIR Sequence Feature Annotation Tool provides a web based user interface for annotating sequence features for submission to IPD-KIR Database. Results are displayed as a feature map, feature tables and in plain text format standardised for submission to IPD-KIR, ENA or GenBank.

The following inputs are required:

FieldDescription
Sequence:
  • Sequences should be submitted as plain text without meta data
  • Single gene sequences should be provided, there is a maximum character limit of 25,000
  • Sequences should be submitted 5' to 3' direction on the sense strand.
LocusA single KIR locus must be provided
LevelCDS or Genomic levels are allowed

Below is a worked example:
