  • Select a project in the Project Browser. The sequences will load into the Sequence Browser.
  • Expand the sequence to which you want to add a feature. Right-click on Features. Select Create Feature from the pop-up menu.

  • The Create Feature window is displayed. The required fields are marked with a red triangle.

  • Some fields can only be completed once other fields have been selected.
  • The input range for many fields is restricted, depending on the values chosen in other fields.

  • The qualifier list is feature-specific.

    Note: if the Qualifier value allows free text, you can enter max. 260 characters.
  • Click Create feature to complete the operation or Cancel to cancel it.

Creating CDS feature

When you create a CDS feature BiSSAP allows you to select an alternative translation table if necessary.

See Translations.

Creating protein features

The feature for protein sequences is created in the same way as for nucleotide sequences.

The feature-key list is protein-specific. For a description of the protein list, see here.

There is just one qualifier for all protein keys. This qualifier does not have a name. It is referred to as description field in Uniprot, and in BiSSAP – as usual – as Qualifier value.

In some cases this unnamed qualifier is mandatory.
