The * symbols are the stop codons.  They aren't mistakes.

Subject: [Genome] unreadable signs in ensembl fasta

Hi,
when I download the Ensembl protein fasta the file contains fasta unreadable 
signs such as *.
Are these in place of an amino acid or can I parse them out assuming that they 
just accidentally were inserted?
Thanks,
Stefanie
