ProForma notation file format #11
Comments
.pf .pfm .pForm |
PTM often stands for post translational modification so it is maybe misleading.
What about |
Yes, it would be great to have a file format for storing proteoforms: it could be used downstream for proteoform database searches, etc. Each fasta entry has a header and a sequence. I believe that the only requirement for a header is that it start with a > character. I propose the following rules for our files:
A complete specification doesn't need much more than this! I like .pf .ptf .pfm |
I like the shorter file extensions without .fasta, but don't have a favorite. Should we allow line breaks in the middle of a ProForma string like a typical FASTA file does? |
Files containing sequences that are annotated according to the nomenclature:
Suggestions:
Extension: .ptm.fasta or just .proteoforms
Format name: Proteoform format, PTM format
