2006 ICAR: TAIR workshop, Part I • Navigation of the TAIR website • User registration • Search and order stocks • Gene search and gene functional annotations • Keyword browser
2006 ICAR - TAIR workshop, Part II • TAIR genome browser – SeqViewer • AraCyc biochemical pathways • Help Central
I. Navigation of TAIR web site • Searches • Tools • Stocks • Arabidopsis Info • FTP site • Portals New
II. User’s registration at TAIR: Why register? • To order stocks from ABRC • To add comments about genes • To submit data to TAIR • To update your contact /personal information • To view your order history TAIR registration is NOT the same as registration to access Cereon datasets!
Login Can’t remember whether you’ve already registered at TAIR? Can’t remember your username or password! No Problem! Search People/Labs
Before you start registration process, the New User Search page shows up To avoid duplicated entries
Step1: Begin the Registration process 1. Enter personal and contact info 2. 3. Submit (but not done yet)
Step 2: Affiliate yourself to a lab/add papers Required to order stocks If you are PI Add your PI’s name Commit changes to complete your registration
Step 3: Wait for account activation • Before you can order , your account needs to be activated. This normally takes less than 24 hours. Once you receive email saying your account is active, you can then order stocks (if you are affiliated with a lab).

Gene Search Results TAIR locus - a mapped element that corresponds to a transcribed region on the Arabidopsis genome (AGI locus, ATxGxxxxx) or a genetic locus. A locus can have multiple gene models such as alternatively spliced variants. TAIR gene model- an annotated AGI gene model (ATxGxxxxx.x) or a published gene symbol (fab1) AT2G43710.1 AT2G43710.2 are splice variants
Locus detail page What is known about the locus/gene: - Functional annotations - Gene expression - cDNA/EST clones - Sequences - Protein - Map/Chr. location - Gene structure - Polymorphisms - Publications What is functional annotation?
