Hi,

I your manual about annotation files you describe:
http://www.jalview.org/help/oldhelp/html/features/annotationsFormat.html

...
You can associate an annotation with a sequence by preceding its definition 
with the line:

SEQUENCE_REF    seq_name        [startIndex]
...

I wonder what the exact format of seq_name is:

Image I get a fasta file like this:
> db|183474|my_pet_protein

Do I have to put in the full id or are  other variations ok?

SEQUENCE_REF    db|183474|my_pet_protein        1
SEQUENCE_REF    183474  1
SEQUENCE_REF    my_pet_protein  1

Background: Since most often accession numbers don’t tell you the species name, 
I would like to add the species info to the sequence name to quickly spot the 
organism. e.g. my_pet_protein|Escherichia_coli. But then, I would need to 
change the annotation file seq_name if I can’t use a shorthand…

Thanks
        Steffen
