Search Term and Match Criteria

gene or sample annotation. The Case Sensitive option insures that all matches contain the search term
including matching the case of each letter. The Exact Match option insures that
all matching annotation contains the search term and no extra characters. If this option
is in the default (off) mode then the annotation matches only need to contain the search term within

proton pump, or any other annotation term containing proton.
