BioVizSeq

BioVizSeq visualizes the types and distribution of elements within bio-sequences, enabling integration of annotation data into publication-quality figures.

Key Features:

• Novel geometry layer: BioVizSeq includes a novel geom layer, geom_rrect(), for visualization.
• Multiple data format support: BioVizSeq supports GFF/GTF, MEME, SMART, Plantcare, PFAM, and CDD data formats.
• Flexible input sources: Data can come from users or analysis programs.

Scientific Applications:

• Functional element visualization: BioVizSeq enables identification and visualization of functional elements within biological sequences.
• Annotation integration: BioVizSeq provides visual presentation for biologists to integrate annotation data.
• Publication figure generation: BioVizSeq helps researchers produce high-quality figures for publication.

Methodology:

BioVizSeq is implemented as an R package leveraging R language capabilities for graphic display.
