Feature-Viewer
Feature-Viewer visualizes biological features mapped onto protein and nucleotide sequences for display and analysis of gene annotations, protein domains, and regulatory elements.
Key Features:
- JavaScript-based visualization: Implemented as a JavaScript library for rendering sequence-mapped features.
- Sequence mapping: Displays and analyzes biological data positioned along protein and nucleotide sequences.
- Support for diverse sequence features: Visual mapping includes gene annotations, protein domains, and regulatory elements.
- Analysis-focused rendering: Presents positional feature information to facilitate interpretation of complex genomic and proteomic datasets.
Scientific Applications:
- Gene annotation visualization: Visualizing gene annotations along nucleotide and protein sequences for inspection and comparison.
- Protein domain mapping: Mapping and inspection of protein domain locations within protein sequences.
- Regulatory element localization: Locating regulatory elements on nucleotide sequences to support regulatory analysis.
- Genomic and proteomic data interpretation: Supporting analysis and interpretation of complex sequence-based datasets through positional visualization.
Methodology:
Implemented as a JavaScript-based visualization library that renders biological features on protein and nucleotide sequences for display and analysis.
