Edit mutagenesis library

To edit a library, you first search for the desired library. You then make changes to the library, and save it.

This topic describes how to edit a library if you are its owner, and the library has a status of Draft. You cannot edit a library with a status of Complete or Submitted.

Before you edit a library

• You must be the owner of the library.

• The library must have a status of Draft.

To edit a library

1. Search for the library that you want to edit.
   
   A list of libraries appears. Use the Pages links at the bottom of the list to view all pages of the search results.
   
   You can filter the list of libraries to show only the ones with a status of Draft. Above the search results, in Status, select Draft, then click Filter.

2. In the Actions column, next to the desired library, click Edit.
   
   A page containing editable library information appears.

3. Change the following parameters under Library Details as desired.

The library Status and MLID, as well as the calculated library statistics in the middle of the page, are informational only and cannot be edited.

4. In the Oligo Set Details tab, make changes to the oligo set content of the library. The following tasks are available:

To view the oligos in an oligo set:

1. Click the oligo set name.
   
   A new window opens displaying details on the oligos and oligo set including oligo sequences.
   
2. Click Close to close the window.

To add a previously created oligo set to the library:

1. Before adding additional oligo sets, check that your library still has available space for more oligo sets. You can add a total of 27,500 oligos to a single library.
   
   The Library Statistics pane shows the number of oligos that can still be accommodated on the slide (listed as No. of Oligos Remaining) as well as the percentage of slide space that the library currently takes up (listed as Percentage Filled).
   
2. Near the top of the list of oligo sets, click Add.
   
   A search window opens.
   
3. In the Oligo Set Name field on the left side of the window, type in the name, or the start of the name, of the oligo set that you want to add.
   
4. Click Search.
   
   The oligo sets found in the search appear on the left side of the window.
   
5. Add one or more of the listed oligo sets to the library:
   
• To add all oligo sets in the list, click Add All.
• To add individual oligo sets, click the sets to select them, then click Add.
• To remove any of the added oligo sets, click the oligo set on the right side of the window (in the Selected Oligo list) to select it. Then click Remove. Clicking Remove All removes all oligo sets.
  
6. Click Done.
   
   The newly added oligo sets are now listed in the Layout Oligo Sets wizard screen.

To remove an oligo set from the library:

1. Mark the check box next the oligo set name that you want to remove.
   
2. Click Remove.
   
   The oligo set is deleted from the library and no longer appears in the Oligo Sets pane.

5. Click Save.
   
   eArray saves your library in the folder that you selected. A success message appears. 

6. Click the x in the corner of the message box to close it.
