sequence_feature [SO_0000110]
Any extent of continuous biological sequence. A sequence feature is an extent of ’located’ biological sequence, whose identity is determined by both its inherent sequence (ordering of monomeric units) and its position (start and end coordinates based on alignment with some reference). By contrast, ‘biological sequences’ are identified and distinguished only by their inehrent sequence, and not their position. Accordingly, the ‘ATG’ start codon in the coding DNA sequence of the human AKT gene is the same ‘sequence’ as the ‘ATG’ start codon in the human SHH gene, but these represent two distinct ‘sequence features’ in virtue of their different positions in the genome.
