Rules

Example

Number type

Roman → Arabic Greek → English

I, II, III Roman→ “1, 2, 3” Arabic alpha, beta, gamma → “a”, ”b”, ”g”

Conjunctions

Split entity by and/or

GABARAP and light chain 3→“GABARAP” & “light chain 3” furin or proprotein convertase → “furin” and “proprotein convertase”

Enumerations

Enumeration→ gene mentions

Robo 1/2 → “Robo 1” and “Robo 2” SMADs 1, 5 and 8 → “SMAD 1” and “SMAD 5” and “SMAD 8”

Parentheses

Split entity by parentheses

fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2)-interacting-factor → “FGF-2” and “fibroblast growth factor 2 interacting factor” gamma carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) → “gamma carboxyglutamic acid” and “Gla”
