    The description always starts with the proposed official name of the

    If a protein is known to be cleaved into multiple functional components,
    the description starts with the name of the precursor protein, followed by

    is described by a different name, the description starts with the name of
    the overall protein, followed by a section delimited by '[Includes: ]'. All

        35-75   Description

    The key name and the endpoints are always on a single line, but the
    description may require one or more additional lines. The following 
    description lines continues from column 35 onwards.  For more information
    about individual ft keys, see 
    http://us.expasy.org/sprot/userman.html#FT_keys

    'FROM' and 'TO' endpoints: Numbering start from 1; When a feature is known
    to extend beyond the position that is given in the feature table, the
    endpoint specification will be preceded by '<' for features which continue
    to the left end (N-terminal direction) or by '>' for features which
    continue to the right end (C- terminal direction); Unknown endpoints are
    denoted by '?'. Uncertain endpoints are denoted by a '?' before the
    position, e.g. '?42'.

    Some features (CARBOHYD, CHAIN, PEPTIDE, PROPEP, VARIANT and VARSPLIC) are
    associated with a unique and stable feature identifier (FTId), which allows
    to construct links directly from position-specific annotation in the
    feature table to specialized protein-related databases.  The FTId is always
    the last component of a feature in the description field. 

    Examples:
        FT   SIGNAL       <1     10       By similarity.
        FT   MOD_RES      41     41       Arginine amide (G-42 provides amide
        FT                                group) (By similarity).
