Using the UniProt basket

The UniProt basket allows you to:
– remember your favourite proteins
– build your own selection of proteins over time
– come back to a saved protein later on
– analyse a subset of your proteins using tools like Align and BLAST

You can add proteins to your basket from search results pages for the UniProtKB, UniRef or UniParc datasets. Simply select them in the results table by checking the tick box to the left of the protein name  and clicking on the ‘Add’ button by the basket icon (Figure 19).

You can also add proteins to your basket from the protein entry pages, using the ‘Add’ button towards the top of the page. Once you add entries to your basket, you will see the number on the basket changing to show that new proteins have been added. Clicking on the basket button will show your saved proteins (Figure 20).
