PECAAN

We just got assigned a phage to annotate, Dignity. When I went to look for it in PECAAN I could not find it.

What can I do to get access it?
Does it have to be assigned to our school to access it or something like that?

Hi Steve,

This link will take you to PECAAN‘s user guide. It provides directions for you to add your phage to PECAAN.
Thanks,
debbie

Hi
I was going over my annotations in PECAAN and I noticed that the starterator link is broken. In the past I used NKF for proteins of unknown function but the red cross doesnt turn to a green checkmark anymore for NKF. It does recognize hypothetical protein. Is that the preferable nomenclature?
thank you
Fernando

Hi Fernando,
You are correct. Please use hypothetical protein in place of NKF.
Best,

Broken links to starterator reports are usually issues with starterator not PECAAN so you might want to cross post the message to the starterator topic as well.

I just checked a dozen or so starterator links on PECAAN for the phage we are working on and they are all working so this may be a sporadic problem. Can you check again, if links are still broken, post the phage and gene (by location) that is specifically broken.

Also as a reminder, if you have a phage that was sequenced in 2025 there should also be a whole phage report available for your phage. You can get to the report by going here: https://wustl.box.com/v/Actino-phage

phage are sorted by phage name into one of the folders you find there.
