Hints for keyword search:

[GENERAL]

1. Keyword search will be performed in a case-insensitive manner.
2. One or two keywords/field identifiers can be entered from the pull-down list.
3. Multiply entered words and identifiers will be combined with 'AND' or 'OR'. as indicated.
   
4. 'NOT' button is prepared to search for the KIAA entries that do NOT contain the input keyword.

A. Description of field identifiers:

The following "field identifiers" can be chosen from the pull-down menue and be used with specified values (for usage examples, see below).

-- ALL -- (Default)	Either of all the fields described below.
[KIAA]	KIAA Number (e.g. KIAA0709).
[Pep_Len]	Length of predicted protein sequence.
[Nuc_Len]	Length of cloned DNA sequence.
[Clone_Name]	Clone name (e.g. hj00729).
[Acc_No]	Accession No.
[nr]	Similar sequences found in nr. nr accession, protein name, and source info.
[nr_Num]	Number of similar sequences found in nr.
[HUGE]	Similar sequences found in HUGE (e.g.KIAA0583).
[HUGE_Num]	Number of similar sequences found in HUGE.
[InterProScan]	InterProScan info.
[TM_Num]	Number of transmembrane segments predicted by SOSUI.
[GM_Warn]	GeneMark Warning (e.g. 'N-terminal truncation' and 'coding interruption').
[Exp_Prof]	Expression profile. (e.g. 'brain >500').
[Chr_No]	Chromosome No.

B. Notes for some field identifiers:

• For [Pep_Len], [Nuc_Len], or [TM_Num] values,
  you can enter '500<' or '>500' to indicate '500 or more';
  and '500>' or '<500' to indicate '500 or less'.
  
  
• For [InterProScan] identifiers,
  InterPro is a motif/domain database integrated by EBI, involving the following databases independently developed.
  Each entry in the InterPro database has two types of IDs. One starts with IPR, which is common to the all entries in the InterPro database. The other one starts with two alphabets that are specific to the original motif/domain database they belong to, that is,

  Pfam   : PF
  PRINTS : PR
  ProDom : PD
  SMART  : SM
  PROSITE, Profile : PS
  

  So if you need to search for HUGE entries containing any domains defined in Pfam database, please enter "PF" and select [InterProScan]. When you want to know entries containing "kinase" motif in any databases, just enter "kinase" and select [InterProScan]. The search result will provide you the entries that contain the "kinase" motif when they match to the motif in at least one of the databases. If you want to know the entries containing any motif in any database, just put in "IPR" and select [InterProScan].

C. Search examples:

1. To search for KIAA entries having similarities with kinase in nr with length >1000 aa, enter " kinase" with [nr] identifier, and enter "1000< " with [Pep_Len] identifier, and select AND operation.
   
   
2. To search for entries with aa length between 1000 and 2000, enter " 1000<" with [Pep_Len] identifier and enter "<2000" with [Peplen] identifier using AND operation.
   
   
3. To search for entries with >5 transmembrane segments, enter "5<" with [TM_Num] identifier.
   
   
4. To show the correspondence list between KIAA and clone name, enter "h" with [Clone_Name] identifier and "f" with [Clone_Name] identifier using OR operation. (all clone names begin with 'h' or 'f')
   
   
5. To search for entries that do NOT contain any motifs in any database, please push "NOT" button, enter "IPR" and select [InterProScan] identifier.
