SubstanceProtein | Medplum

A SubstanceProtein is defined as a single unit of a linear amino acid sequence, or a combination of subunits that are either covalently linked or have a defined invariant stoichiometric relationship. This includes all synthetic, recombinant and purified SubstanceProteins of defined sequence, whether the use is therapeutic or prophylactic. This set of elements will be used to describe albumins, coagulation factors, cytokines, growth factors, peptide/SubstanceProtein hormones, enzymes, toxins, toxoids, recombinant vaccines, and immunomodulators.

Elements

Name Required Type Description
sequenceType CodeableConcept The SubstanceProtein descriptive elements will only be used when a complete or partial amino acid sequence is available or derivable from a nucleic acid sequence.
numberOfSubunits integer Number of linear sequences of amino acids linked through peptide bonds. The number of subunits constituting the SubstanceProtein shall be described. It is possible that the number of subunits can be variable.
disulfideLinkage string[] The disulphide bond between two cysteine residues either on the same subunit or on two different subunits shall be described. The position of the disulfide bonds in the SubstanceProtein shall be listed in increasing order of subunit number and position within subunit followed by the abbreviation of the amino acids involved.
subunit SubstanceProteinSubunit[] This subclause refers to the description of each subunit constituting the SubstanceProtein. A subunit is a linear sequence of amino acids linked through peptide bonds. The Subunit information shall be provided when the finished SubstanceProtein is a complex of multiple sequences.
id string Unique id for inter-element referencing.
extension Extension[] Additional content defined by implementations.
modifierExtension Extension[] Extensions that cannot be ignored even if unrecognized.
sequence string The sequence information shall be provided enumerating the amino acids from N- to C-terminal end using standard single-letter amino acid codes.
length integer Length of linear sequences of amino acids contained in the subunit.
sequenceAttachment Attachment The sequence information shall be provided enumerating the amino acids from N- to C-terminal end using standard single-letter amino acid codes.
nTerminalModificationId Identifier Unique identifier for molecular fragment modification based on the ISO 11238 Substance ID.
nTerminalModification string The name of the fragment modified at the N-terminal of the SubstanceProtein shall be specified.
cTerminalModificationId Identifier Unique identifier for molecular fragment modification based on the ISO 11238 Substance ID.
cTerminalModification string The modification at the C-terminal shall be specified.
