The sequence includes a combination of:
The sequence includes information combined from the COORD and SEQRES records in the pdb file:
* Residues with atoms that have coordinates (ATOM records in the file) and are also included in SEQRES records; these are displayed as uppercase letters.
 
* Residues that lack coordinates but are mentioned in SEQRES records in the file (i.e. a physical gap, typically due to crystallographic disorder); these are displayed as lowercase letters; the reported residue number is an estimation, correlative to the adjacent residue with coordinates (an interpolated number is desirable but not currently implemented).
{| class="wikitable"
* Residues inferred due to a numbering gap (absent from both SEQRES and ATOM records) are displayed as the number of missing residues surrounded by tilde (~) signs.
| uppercase letters || Residues with atoms that have coordinates (ATOM records in the file) and are also included in SEQRES records
* Residues in ATOM records that are absent in SEQRES records reflect sequence microheterogeneity; the alternate residues at the same sequence position are enclosed in square brackets.  
|- 
* Inserted residues are listed in-line with other residues, but displayed as superscript letters.
