Description

The request is the single proper way to select symbols for varieties (only Symbol variety for gene symbols is supported currently). There are three modes to select symbol: by direct list of symbols, by panel name and by name pattern. The request filters known symbols (so list mode is meaningful also), and reports in in-ds if these symbols are actual for the dataset.

Argument pattern is expected as sequence of letters (alpha), digits and '*`, "star" symbol, which means any sequence of symbols. Pattern should be meaningful enough: not less than 3 symbols length, and not less than 2 alpha-numeric symbols inside.
