NOTE: Information is not able to be entered in the fields as this is text only. This will be an interactive form when it is operational.

NOTES ON ENTRY FORM

1. The form is long. However, as much information can be derived from the sequence around the part of the mutation and the change itself, the 50-51 bp sequence of the area of wild type sequence and the analogous mutant sequence, theoretically this is all the information required together with the detection method (in C). Nevertheless, there is a requirement for the information to be useful for the submitter to be identified (all of A) or reference where published, General Information (B), the quality of data and evidence for its reported effect (F).

2. The derivation of other entries can be done by the "Mutation Checker" or other program or manually by the curator or the submitter but trivial names are useful for biochemists (in E).

3. Because of the above, those questions believed to be a necessary minimum are highlighted in red (Derived from Scriver et al Hu Mut.13:344-350) which are included in 1 above or blue thought to be important and/or included in Cotton & Scriver Hu.Mut.12:1-3.

4. Naturally as this has been developed as a general form it can be abbreviated when used by LSDB, e.g. omit B.

5. Mitochondrial genes need an entry "% heteroplasmy and tissue studied".

6. Much more could be put on drop down lists in a final form so it will look much less of a problem than it appears on a printed sheet.
