Task Set 1.
- Start from the gene list:
- View the annotation history for the first gene on the list.
- This is not a direct click-through task.
- Modify the existing annotation for that gene with data from another gene
that's a homolog: GO function; EC number; COG group; Gene Name.
- Please note that there is no validation in the second interactive prototype.
- Submit your annotation.
- Preview page will appear prompting user to review his/her changes.
- Please note that in the second interactive prototype the entries are not written to the database.
Task Set 2.
- Start from the gene list:
- Express your opposition to the annotation for the first gene on the list.
- This is not a direct click-through task.
Task Set 3.
- Start from the Gene Cart:
- Change an annotation by adding a COG group.
- Please note that there is no validation in the first interactive prototype.
- Add this gene to your list of watched annotations.
Task Set 4.
- Start from the Gene Cart:
- Comment on annotations for multiple genes.
- A list of genes needs to be selected for executing a batch comment.
Task Set 5.
- View your watched annotations.
- Starting from anywhere on the site, find where you can view your watched annotations.
