The acronym COPE stands for "Cytokines & Cells Online Pathfinder Encyclopaedia. The version number (times 1,000) reflects the number of entries.
COPE needs your support to keep this academic encyclopedia a free bioinformatics service to the scientific community. Please be so kind and visit the HELP REQUEST page. A 1-page pdf media information file can be downloaded by clicking on the COPE ADVERTISING OPTIONS logo at the top of all entry pages.
Organisation of COPE entries
» upper part of the table below describes COPE's organization of the alphabetical order of entries, spelling conventions, navigational features, etc.
» lower part of the table below introduces major COPE pages that can be used as entry points to explore COPE contents. It also contains a list of the subdictionaries integrated into the main body ofthis dictionary.
| Pages | Description |
|---|---|
| 27 | ALPHABET PAGES are accessible from the alphabet bar and list all COPE entry terms. The # sign is for entry names with number prefixes. You can use the freetext search option of COPE to search for text occurrences of terms that do not appear as entry terms. |
| 24,700+ | ENTRY PAGES each COPE entry has its own page. Access to individual pages of COPE is possible only from within this encyclopedia. Links from outside have been disabled |
| ORGANISATION Order of entries should be strictly numerical/ alphabetical, ignoring all plus signs, hyphens, brackets, slashes, commas, decimal points, etc. within an entry term. Numbers come before letters. Thus the order is: 5q minus syndrome ... 4-1BB ... 520 ... 6-26 ... 14-3-3 ... 4-1.10 ... 5637 ... 744.1 ... Alpha-2-Macroglobulin ... alpha-1,4-galactosylstransferase ... ANP[4-28] ... ANP[5-28] ... ANP[95-126] ... ANP[103-125] ... CD47R ... CD48 ... ... CD150 ... CD339 ... CDT6 ... CDw149 ... CCR2 ... CCR11 ... CCR5-2 ... FGF-23 ... FGF-14-1a ... FGF-14-1b ... HtrA2 ... H(+) transporting lysosomal ATPase V0 subunit A2 ... HTRA serine peptidase 1 ... LGR7 ... LGR7-Truncate ... LGR8 ... LGR7.1 ... LGR7.2 ... LGR8.1 ... LGR7.10 ... #-sign in alphabet bar is for entries beginning with numbers Roman numerals are usually converted into Arabic numerals. If not (as in some abbreviations), they are treated as letters German Umlauts are ä, ö, ü. Entry terms containing such umlauts are treated with respect to their positions in an alphabetical order as if spelled with ae, oe, ue, respectively Greek letters are spelled out as latinized word components (for example, Omega-Interferon is under letter 'O' and not 'I') Acronyms, rather than the long form, usually serve as main entries Spelling may differ from (variable) spellings in the cited references or databanks such as MedLine/PubMed. Although the CataCopia programme generating hypertexted COPE pages can accomodate for variable spellings of a headword, I prefer consistent spelling. | |
| NAVIGATION Navigation buttons labelled PREVIOUS and NEXT allow leafing through consecutive entries independent of the browser's own page history function. One navigation button accesses a random entry | |
| HYPERLINKS Hypertexted COPE pages are generated automatically by COPE's proprietary CataCopia programme, which recognizes exact occurrences and derivatives of a headword and creates links to the appropriate entry page. Word derivatives are 'hidden' and do not appear in the alphabet lists. (Note: on rare occasions, a link may bring you to an unexpected place. This is by intention, but that you can find out yourself). Word derivatives of a headword comprise: (1) simple singular/plural forms: Cytokine (linking to Cytokines) (2) affixed forms: CD23(+) (linking to CD23), CD34(high) and CD34(low) (linking to CD34), c-kit and v-kit (linking to kit) (3) adjectival forms: chemotactic (linking to chemotaxis), apoptotic (linking to apoptosis) (4) conceptual cross-referencing words: blood vessels (linking to angiogenesis), tissue repair (linking to wound healing), cloned (linking to Gene library), cells (linking to Cell types) (5) synonymous terms: glia (linking to glial cells), culture supernatant (linking to conditioned medium) (6) Terms such as avian, bovine, canine, caprine, chicken, dog, equine, feline, goat, guinea pig, horse, human, lapine, mouse, murine, ovine, pig, porcine, rabbit, rat, trout, and some others all lead to Cytokine Inter-species Reactivities Bold-faced linked terms within entries usually refer to terms explained within the context of a particular entry. They exist as entries in the alphabetical lists of entries and there is normally no need to follow these links
'Backlinks' lists all other COPE entries that contain the current headword within their text bodies. This can be of great utility and I don't think needs further elaboration
'FREETEXT SEARCH' allows string searches over the contents of all COPE pages. The results page lists all COPE entries containing the query string. The query string (bold face) is shown within the sentence context. | |
