Create a New Annotation,
Select the DNA or Protein sequence to be annotated with the mouse and then press the 'Annotate' button. The 'Annotation Editor' window is opened. By default, the name for the annotation is entered as "Start...Stop" but this can be edited. Annotation names must be unique. You can indicate directionality by selecting 'forward', 'reverse' or 'directionless'. You can set and specify the annotation as a 'joined' annotation, corresponding to a 'joined' entry of a genbank record. You can set the annotation as a 'Multiple Cloning Site' (MCS). MCS annotations designate the sequence for MCS style display on the 'Map' or 'Circular Map' displays. Comments may also be added in the 'Comments' section (eg The region KRKK was identified by Jones et al as a functional Nuclear Import Signal).
