From Proteopedia
Searching in Proteopedia works the same way as does searching in Wikipedia, plus some special operators to enhance Full Text Search.
| * | The asterisk serves as the truncation (or wildcard) operator. |
| + | A leading plus sign indicates that this word must be present in every page returned. |
| - | A leading minus sign indicates that this word must not be present in any page returned. |
| " | Double quotes at the beginning and end of a phrase, matches only pages that contain the complete phrase, as it was typed. |
| By default (when neither + nor - is specified) the word is optional, but the pages that contain it are rated higher. |
