Hi Everyone,
The CADD data set from Washington U., lists annotation for all potential variants in the human genome, including annotation about amino acid changes. The single letter amino acid code is used. In numerous cases the code 'U' is used for the original, ie reference, amino acid. This is clearly not in the IUPAC single-letter amino acid table.
Can anyone tell me what this refers to, and why? This seems like an error, but maybe there was a reason for it. Either way, its not an IUPAC code, so really shouldn't be used.
Has anyone else had problems with this?

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-
