                <p>
                  Pfam has chosen to link families to Wikipedia articles. In
                  some case we have created or edited these articles but in
                  many other cases we have not made any direct contribution to
                  the content of the article. The Wikipedia community does
                  monitor edits to try to ensure that (a) the quality of
                  article annotation increases, and (b) vandalism is very
                  quickly dealt with. However, we would like to emphasise that
                  Pfam does not curate the Wikipedia entries and we cannot
                  guarantee the accuracy of the information on the Wikipedia
                  page.

                  Wikipedia is a free, online encyclopedia. Although anyone can
                  edit or contribute to an article, Wikipedia has some strong
                  editing guidelines and policies, which promote the Wikipedia
                  standard of style and etiquette. Your edits and contributions
                  are more likely to be accepted (and remain) if they are in
                  accordance with this policy.

                  When you click on the &quot;Edit Wikipedia article&quot;

                  Firstly, as a registered Wikipedia user your edits are more
                  likely seen as valuable contribution (although all edits are
                  open to community scrutiny regardless).  Secondly, if you
                  edit under an IP address you may be sharing this IP address
                  with other users. If your IP address has previously been
                  blocked (due to being flagged as a source of 'vandalism')
                  your edits will also be blocked. You can find more

          <p>This family consists of several thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) proteins. Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone (TRH; pyroGlu-His-Pro-NH2), originally isolated as a hypothalamic neuropeptide hormone, most likely acts also as a neuromodulator and/or neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS). This interpretation is supported by the identification of a peptidase localised on the surface of neuronal cells which has been termed TRH-degrading ectoenzyme (TRH-DE) since it selectively inactivates TRH [<a href="#ref1">1</a>]. TRH has been used clinically for the treatment of spinocerebellar degeneration and disturbance of consciousness in humans [<a href="#ref2">2</a>].</p>

      <ul>
        <li>
          the number of sequences which exhibit this architecture
        </li>
        <li>
          a textual description of the architecture, e.g. Gla, EGF x 2, Trypsin. 
          This example describes an architecture with one <code>Gla</code>
          domain, followed by two consecutive <code>EGF</code> domains, and
          finally a single <code>Trypsin</code> domain

      We store a range of different sequence alignments for families. As well
      as the seed alignment from which the family is built, we provide the 
      full alignment, generated by searching the sequence database using the
      family HMM. We also generate alignments using four
      <a class="ext" href="http://pir.georgetown.edu/rps/">
        representative proteomes</a> (RP) sets, the NCBI sequence database,
      and our metagenomics sequence database.

    <div id="alignmentsNotes" style="display: none">
      <p>
        There are various ways to view or download the sequence alignments that
        we store. We provide several sequence viewers and a plain-text
        Stockholm-format file for download.
      </p>

      <h3>Alignment types</h3>

      <p>
        We make a range of alignments for each Pfam-A family:
      </p>

      <dl>
        <dt>seed</dt>
        <dd>the curated alignment from which the HMM for the family is
          built</dd>
        <dt>full</dt>
        <dd>the alignment generated by searching the sequence database 
          using the HMM</dd>
        <dt>RP15/RP35/RP55/RP75</dt>
        <dd><a class="ext" href="http://pir.georgetown.edu/rps/">
          Representative Proteomes (RPs)</a> at
          15%, 35%, 55% and 75% co-membership thresholds</dd>
        <dt>NCBI</dt>
        <dd>alignment generated by searching the NCBI sequence database
          using the family HMM</dd>
        <dt>meta</dt>
        <dd>alignment generated by searching the metagenomics sequence database
          using the family HMM</dd>
      </dl>

      <h3>Viewing</h3>

      <p>
        You can see the alignments as HTML or in three different sequence
        viewers:
      </p>
      <dl>
        <dt>
          <a class="ext" href="http://www.jalview.org/">jalview</a>
        </dt>
        <dd>
          a Java applet developed at the University of Dundee. You will
          need <a class="ext" href="http://java.sun.com/">Java</a> installed
          before running jalview
        </dd>
        <dt>
          HTML
        </dt>
        <dd>
          an HTML page showing the whole alignment.<strong>Please
          note:</strong> full Pfam alignments can be <em>very</em> large. These
          HTML views are extremely large and often cause problems for browsers.
          Please use either jalview or the Pfam viewer if you have trouble
          viewing the HTML version
        </dd>
        <dt>
          PP/Heatmap
        </dt>
        <dd>
          an HTML-based representation of the alignment, coloured according to 
          the posterior-probability (PP) values from the HMM. As for the standard HTML
          view, heatmap alignments can also be very large and slow to render.
        </dd>
        <dt>
          Pfam viewer
        </dt>
        <dd>
          an HTML-based viewer that uses 
          <acronym title="Distributed Annotation System">DAS</acronym> 
          to retrieve alignment fragments on request
        </dd>
      </dl>

      <h3>Reformatting</h3>

      <p>
        You can download (or view in your browser) a text representation of a
        Pfam alignment in various formats:
      </p>
      <ul>
        <li>Selex</li>
        <li>Stockholm</li>
        <li>FASTA</li>
        <li>MSF</li>
      </ul>
      <p>
        You can also change the order in which sequences are listed in the 
        alignment, change how insertions are represented, alter the characters
        that are used to represent gaps in sequences and, finally, choose 
        whether to download the alignment or to view it in your browser 
        directly.
      </p>

      <h3>Downloading</h3>

      <p>
        You may find that large alignments cause problems for the viewers and
        the reformatting tool, so we also provide all alignments in Stockholm
        format. You can download either the plain text alignment, or a gzipped
        version of it.

    <h2>View options</h2>

    <p>
      We make a range of alignments for each Pfam-A family. You can see a
      description of each 
      <span onclick="reveal( this, 'alignmentsNotes', false, true );$('alignmentNotesSwitch').update('Less...');"
            class="moreLink">above</span>. 
      You can view these alignments in various ways but please note that some
      types of alignment are never generated while others may not be available
      for all families, most commonly because the alignments are too large to
      handle.

      HMM logos is one way of visualising profile HMMs. Logos provide a
      quick overview of the properties of an HMM in a graphical form. You can 
      see a more detailed description of HMM logos and find out how you can 
      interpret them

      This chart is a modified &quot;sunburst&quot; visualisation of
      the species tree for this family. It shows each node in the
      tree as a separate arc, arranged radially with the superkingdoms
      at the centre and the species arrayed around the outermost
      ring.
    </p>

    <h2>How the sunburst is generated</h2>

    <p>
      The tree is built by considering the taxonomic lineage of each
      sequence that has a match to this family. For each node in the
      resulting tree, we draw an arc in the sunburst. The radius of
      the arc, its distance from the root node at the centre of the
      sunburst, shows the taxonomic level (&quot;superkingdom&quot;,
      &quot;kingdom&quot;, etc). The length of the arc represents
      either the number of sequences represented at a given level, or
      the number of species that are found beneath the node in the
      tree. The weighting scheme can be changed using the sunburst
      controls.
    </p>
    <p>
      In order to reduce the complexity of the representation, we 
      reduce the number of taxonomic levels that we show. We consider
      only the following eight major taxonomic levels:
    </p>
    <ul>
      <li>superkingdom</li>
      <li>kingdom</li>
      <li>phylum</li>
      <li>class</li>
      <li>order</li>
      <li>family</li>
      <li>genus</li>
      <li>species</li>
    </ul>

    <h2>Colouring and labels</h2>

    <p>
      Segments of the tree are coloured approximately according to
      their superkingdom. For example, archeal branches are coloured
      with shades of orange, eukaryotes in shades of purple, etc. The
      colour assignments are shown under the sunburst controls. Where
      space allows, the name of the taxonomic level will be written on
      the arc itself.
    </p>
    <p>
      As you move your mouse across the sunburst, the current node
      will be highlighted. In the top section of the controls panel we
      show a summary of the lineage of the currently highlighed node.
      If you pause over an arc, a tooltip will be shown, giving the
      name of the taxonomic level in the title and a summary of the
      number of sequences and species below that node in the tree. 
    </p>

    <h2>Anomalies in the taxonomy tree</h2>

    <p>
      There are some situations that the sunburst tree cannot easily
      handle and for which we have work-arounds in place.
    </p>

    <h3>Missing taxonomic levels</h3>

    <p>
      Some species in the taxonomic tree may not have one or more of
      the main eight levels that we display. For example, <em>Bos
      taurus</em> is not assigned an order in the NCBI taxonomic tree.
      In such cases we mark the omitted level with, for example,
      &quot;No order&quot;, in both the tooltip and the lineage
      summary.
    </p>

    <h3>Unmapped species names</h3>
    
    <p>
      The tree is built by looking at each sequence in the full
      alignment for the family. We take the name of the species given
      by UniProt and try to map that to the full taxonomic tree from
      NCBI. In some cases, the name chosen by UniProt does not map to
      any node in the NCBI tree, perhaps because the chosen name is
      listed as a synonym or a misspelling in the NCBI taxonomy.
    </p>
    <p>
      So that these nodes are not simply omitted from the sunburst
      tree, we group them together in a separate branch (or segment of
      the sunburst tree). Since we cannot determine the lineage for
      these unmapped species, we show all levels between the
      superkingdom and the species as &quot;uncategorised&quot;.
    </p>

    <h3>Sub-species</h3>

    <p>
      Since we reduce the species tree to only the eight main
      taxonomic levels, sequences that are mapped to the sub-species
      level in the tree would not normally be shown. Rather than leave
      out these species, we map them instead to their parent species.
      So, for example, for sequences belonging to one of the
      <em>Vibrio cholerae</em> sub-species in the NCBI taxonomy, we
      show them instead as belonging to the species <em>Vibrio
      cholerae</em>.
    </p>

    <h3>Too many species/sequences</h3>

    <p>
      For large species trees, you may see blank regions in the outer
      layers of the sunburst. These occur when there are large numbers
      of arcs to be drawn in a small space. If an arc is less than
      approximately one pixel wide, it will not be drawn and the space
      will be left blank. You may still be able to get some
      information about the species in that region by moving your mouse
      across the area, but since each arc will be very small, it will
      be difficult to accurately locate a particular species.

    <h2>Species trees</h2>
    <p>
      We show the species tree in one of two ways. For smaller trees we try
      to show an interactive representation, which allows you to select
      specific nodes in the tree and view them as an alignment or as a set 
      of Pfam domain graphics.
    </p>
    <p>
      Unfortunately we have found that there are problems viewing the 
      interactive tree when the it becomes larger than a certain limit. 
      Furthermore, we have found that Internet Explorer can become 
      unresponsive when viewing some trees, regardless of their size. 
      We therefore show a text representation of the species tree when the
      size is above a certain limit or if you are using Internet Explorer
      to view the site.
    </p>
    <p>
      If you are using IE you can still load the interactive tree by 
      clicking the &quot;Generate interactive tree&quot; button, but please 
      be aware of the potential problems that the interactive species tree 
      can cause.
    </p>
    
    <h3>Interactive tree</h3>
    <p>
      For all of the domain matches in a full alignment, we count the 
      number that are found on all sequences in the alignment. 
      This total is shown in the <span class="domSum">purple</span> box.
    </p>
    <p>
      We also count the number of unique sequences on which each domain is 
      found, which is shown in <span class="seqSum">green</span>.
      <strong>Note</strong> that a domain may appear multiple times on the
      same sequence, leading to the difference between these two numbers.
    </p>
    <p>
      Finally, we group sequences from the same organism according to the 
      <a class="ext" href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/"><acronym 
      title="National Center for Biotechnology Information">NCBI</acronym></a> 
      code that is assigned by
      <a class="ext" href="http://www.uniprot.org/">UniProt</a>, 
      allowing us to count the number of distinct sequences on which the 
      domain is found. This value is shown in the <span class="specSum">
        pink</span> boxes.
    </p>
    <p>
      We use the NCBI species tree to group organisms according to their 
      taxonomy and this forms the structure of the displayed tree.
      <strong>Note</strong> that in some cases the trees are too large (have
      too many nodes) to allow us to build an interactive tree, but in most
      cases you can still view the tree in a plain text, non-interactive
      representation. Those species which are represented in the seed
      alignment for this domain are <span class="highlightSeed">
        highlighted</span>.
    </p>
    <p>
      You can use the tree controls to manipulate how the interactive tree
      is displayed:
    </p>
    <ul>
      <li>show/hide the summary boxes</li>
      <li>highlight species that are represented in the seed alignment</li>
      <li>expand/collapse the tree or expand it to a given depth</li>
      <li>select a sub-tree or a set of species within the tree and view
        them graphically or as an alignment</li>
      <li>save a plain text representation of the tree</li>
    </ul>
