Help page


If you are new to the site this help page can be used as a guideline for how to use the different features, such as the search function, the insert new entry function and your own personal user page. Most of these features are only available for registered users, so we do advise you to register an account if you have not already done so.

How to search the database for entries

If you wish to serach for entries in the database, click on the "Search" link in the navigation bar. This will bring you to the Search page, where there are a number of fields that can be filled in to specify the type of entries you which to find. So if you already know the specific upstrain ID of the entry of interest, you can simply fill in the upstrain ID search field to get that entry. However if you for example want to search for all entries containing a certain type of backbone and insert, these fields can be filled out together to get all entries matching these specific criteria.
If you want more information about the entry, click on the corresponding upstrain ID to access the entry page. You can also access the user page of the entry's creator by clicking on the creators name, which will redirect you to their user page where contact information is available.

Good luck!
