Solution
In sequence annotation, the whole set of genome containing all coding and non-coding sequences is sequenced and the functions are assigned to different segments.
It could be used for marking specific features in a DNA, RNA or protein sequence with descriptive information about structure or function.
It helps in describing regions or sites of interest in the protein sequence, such as enzyme active sites, secondary structure or other characteristics reported in the cited references.
