Text copying.

Avoid copying text directly from a web site or an article. If you anyway think it is necessary to include such texts, you must refer to it properly. Otherwise it will be considered plagiarism, which is strictly not allowed. Instructions If you copy a text without reformulating it you need to give it as a quotation, i.e., put the text between double-quotation marks and give a reference to where you copied the text from. For example, "PROSITE, initially a signature or pattern database, was created in 1988 by Amos Bairoch. It was first distributed through PC/Gene, the sequence analysis software suite he was developing at the time. " (Hulo et al., 2007) is a text from a paper published in NAR. The copied text is given between doublequotation marks with a reference to that paper. You also need to add the following in the reference list Hulo N., Bairoch A., Bulliard V., Cerutti L., Cuche B., de Castro E., Lachaize C., Langendijk-Genevaux P.S., Sigrist A. (2007) 20 years of PROSITE. Nucleic Acids Research, Nov 14.

Materials and methods The materials and methods section should describe what you did and what tools you used. It should provide enough information to make it possible for a reader to repeat the work you did. Results and analysis The results section should describe the results you found. Data should be presented as concisely as possible, if appropriate in the form of tables or figures, although very large tables should be avoided. The results section should also include an analysis of the results. The analysis is an explanation of your results. Why do you get these results?
