Creates a new gene entry or edits the location of an existing gene entry.
When creating a new gene, type a unique gene name into 'Gene'.
To edit the location of the gene you may either
-
edit the 'Location' field or
-
edit the detailed fields in the lower part of the window.
Changing any of them updates the other.
The field 'Status' gives hints about the validity of the location.
Certainty fields may contain
Character Meaning
= exact position
< somewhere before position
> somewhere behind position
+/- directly behind/before position
'+' and '-' are special and only allowed for locations like '7^8' (which marks the location between base number 7 and 8)
When you are satisfied with the entered location, press 'Create gene'.
In case of editing the location of an existing gene, the gene is updated everytime the location has a valid state. That allows an open ARB_EDIT4 which automatically searches and highlights the gene sequence.
