Description of the SIFT Sqlite Database Columns

Arguments

Column descriptions

These column names are displayed when columns is called on a SIFTDb object.
  • RSID : rsid
  • PROTEINID : NCBI RefSeq protein ID
  • AACHANGE : amino acid substitution; reference aa is preceeding, followed by the position and finally the snp aa
  • METHOD : method of obtaining related sequences using PSI-BLAST
  • AA : either the reference or snp residue amino acid
  • PREDICTION : SIFT prediction
  • SCORE : SIFT score (range 0 to 1)
    • TOLERATED : score is greater than 0.05
    • DAMAGING : score is less than or equal to 0.05
    • NOT SCORED : no prediction is made if there are less than 2 homologous sequences that have an amino acid at the position of the given SNP or if the SIFT prediction is not available
  • MEDIAN : diversity measurement of the sequences used for prediction (range 0 to 4.32)
  • POSITIONSEQS : number of sequences with an amino acide at the position of prediction
  • TOTALSEQS : total number of sequences in alignment
