Evidence Collection: Overview
The curation interface provides spaces for entering information in the following formats:
Dropdown menus: select the appropriate option; subsequent options in the curation interface may change depending on the choice
Spaces for controlled vocabularies (e.g. approved gene names, ontology terms): consult the appropriate ontology; a link-out is provided
Free text fields
For a subset of fields, entry of data or information is required; these fields are marked by an asterisk. If you attempt to save your work, but a required field has not been filled, an error notice will appear next to the Cancel/Save buttons, and any fields that require curation will be outlined in red.
If you select Cancel or navigate away from a curation page before saving, all data you have entered will be lost.
Genetic and experimental evidence is collected from individual publications. The basic workflow for evidence collection is outlined here:
The Evidence panel on the right is the starting point for adding evidence for a selected article. To begin curation, click the ‘+’ sign next to the specific type of evidence you would like to curate.
