DESCRIPTION:**This webinar will be streamed to registered participants only
 .**\n\n# Overview\nAre you working on plants and struggling to find inform
 ation about plant proteins? Are you curious about the biosynthesis of natu
 ral compounds like caffeine\, capsaicin\, and others?  Are you interested 
 in the interactions between plant and pathogens? If so\, this webinar is f
 or you. \n\n[UniProt](https://www.uniprot.org/) is the world’s leading h
 igh-quality\, comprehensive and freely accessible resource of protein sequ
 ence and functional information. UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot curators manually ex
 tract information from the scientific literature\, including plant protein
 s. UniProt also provides protein sets (proteomes) for plant species with s
 equenced genomes. \n\nStarting with a biological question (i.e.\, how to g
 et the list of enzymes involved in the synthesis of CBD or THC)\, you will
  explore the different ways of answering it\, using UniProt. Hints on how 
 to extend queries to other biological contexts will also be provided. \n\n
 This 1-h webinar will introduce the plant-related data in UniProt and how 
 to find it. \n\n# Audience\nThis webinar is for **beginners** interested i
 n protein enzymes.\n\n# Learning outcomes\nAt the end of this webinar\, th
 e participants are expected to:\n* describe the information on plant prote
 ins found in UniProt\, focussing on plant enzymes\n* use the advanced sear
 ch to query UniProt for plant protein information\n* recall how to find co
 mplete plant proteomes\n* know where to find help\, documentation and get 
 support\n\n# Prerequisites\n##### Knowledge / competencies\nKnowledge of b
 iology and plants is required for this course. \n\nWhile this course is de
 signed for beginners\, we suggest you view the video [Inside expert biocur
 ation in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvrCJtJnDbo
