Notes Section:

1. Header format in pfam.reference:

internal protein identifier # SWISS-PROT-ID # Pfam-information

where "Pfam-information" is a ';' separated list of
a) Pfam-Family
b) Pfam-ACC
c) Number of repeat units
d) dummy
e) average percent identity
f) average entroy

For example:
2cmcZce3wbap_amgsdi90a # FINC_BOVIN # Fibronectin; PF01770; 15;   24.11;    32.00;     1.99

2. Output format of RADAR:

The header contains the following fields:
a) Number of repeat units
b) total score = sum of all repeat unit scores
c) length of one repeat unit
e) offset of repeat diagonal
f) start residue of template repeat unit
g) end residue of template repeat unit
h) level of iteration. "Short" means that this repeat was found by
B
	the procedure for finding short conserved repeats.

Then follows the multiple alignment of repeat units in the format:
firstresidue-lastresidue (score, z-score) alignment

Lowercase characters correspond to unaligned positions. This means that this
residue was not aligned to the template repeat. '.' is used as a gap character.

For example:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
No. of Repeats|Total Score|Length  |Diagonal| BW-From|   BW-To|   Level
            15|    1642.24|      88|      88|    1315|    1402|       1
