The initial output from COSMIC is a graphical view of the mutations distributed along the linear amino-acid sequence of the gene. The scale bar incorporates a zoom function to generate a more detailed view of the protein to the point where individual amino acids are named (when there are fewer than 31 amino acids displayed). When a Pfam or Interpro domain is present, a link is provided to these resources (adjacent to the Domain label) while links to the papers that were curated are positioned beneath the mutations (in red) with an option of either viewing the papers that have data for a particular location in the protein or all of the papers for the selected gene.
