We are actively working on organizing and building better Unison documentation. In the meantime, here's what we currently have available:
Installation notes
in preparation
Tutorial
Provides a brief introduction to connecting and using Unison, with examples.
Automated Schema documentation
in preparation
Critical Tables
An entity-relationship diagram of the most frequently used tables in Unison.
Web Tour
A small set of web pages with example queries and discussion.
Papers about or using Unison
Unison: An Integrated Platform for Computational Biology Discovery
Hart RK, Mukhyala K
Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing PDF
Natural selection of protein structural and functional properties: a single nucleotide polymorphism perspective.
Liu J, Zhang Y, Lei X, Zhang Z.
Genome Biol. 2008 Apr 8;9(4):R69. PubMed
Functional characterization of the Bcl-2 gene family in the zebrafish.

(Also see our unpublished manuscript that provides details about the computational discovery of these proteins.)
Wiki
Sourceforge hosts a wiki for Unison. Most or all of our documentation will eventually reside there.
Mailing lists
Users may wish to subscribe to the moderated, low-volume unison-db-announce mailing list. We will likely make a user mailing list as well.
Mail the authors
Send email to unison at unison-db.org.
