Hello everyone, I'm working on collecting sequences of each pfam family.
And I realize Pfam-A.fasta (ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/Pfam/releases/Pfam28.0/relnotes.txt) consists of sequences in fasta format with PFAM accession, but it does not contain all the sequences of a family.
My question is, What kind of sequence would be excluded in this file? And why?
For example, Piwi family should have 3,833 sequences, but there are only 1,893 sequences in Pfam-A.fasta.
Thanks!
