3.2 SWISS-PROT Field Definitions
The field codes found in
a SWISS-PROT (or TrEMBL) sequence flat file are used to help arrange
the information for human readabilty and machine-based parsing. There
are several SWISS-PROT field codes found in a sequence flat file;
they are represented by two-letter abbreviations. Table 3-1 summarizes the contents of each field code.
