SeqVISTA

SeqVISTA visualizes annotated features on nucleotide and protein sequences to compare and interpret sequence motifs and annotations.

Key Features:

• Holistic Visualization: Highlights residues corresponding to user-selected features and displays annotated motifs and subsequences within nucleotide and protein sequences.
• Integration with Sequence Analysis Tools: Displays and integrates results from external sequence analysis tools and accepts GenBank Flat Files, GenBank HTML, and FASTA input formats.
• Plugin Support: Provides plugins to visualize outputs from RepeatMasker, PsiPred, and Cister.
• Transcriptional Regulation Analysis: Integrates multiple computational algorithms and web services to support detection and visualization of regulatory motifs for genome-scale transcriptional regulation studies.

Scientific Applications:

• Transcriptional regulation analysis: Aids detection and visualization of regulatory motifs across metazoan genomes by integrating outputs from diverse computational algorithms.

Methodology:

Employs client-side integration technology to merge and visualize annotations and analysis outputs, parsing GenBank Flat Files, GenBank HTML, and FASTA and incorporating plugin outputs from tools such as RepeatMasker, PsiPred, and Cister.
