Versions of Jalview older than 2.11.2.4 will not work with the July 2022 UniProt free text search.
The new UniProt API has a different search syntax for ranges of dates and numbers, and different query fields for advanced searches. The general syntax of combining queries remains the same. Because of these differences, your previously saved searches will not appear in the dropdown list next to the search box. If you need to access these old searches they can be found in your ~/.jalview_properties file with the label CACHE.UNIPROT_FTS. If you want to transfer them to the new API search then copy the values to the CACHE.UNIPROT_2022_FTS label (or rename the existing label if the new one does not exist) (see the UniProtKB query fields page). +
+ A change in accepted formats for number and date ranges means that number ranges should now always be entered as e.g.[1 TO 100] or [2020-01-01 TO 2022-07-26] although a * wildcard can be used for half-open ranges, e.g.[2020-01-01 TO *]. See the UniProtKB query fields page for more examples.
