Sequence viewing
All CLC bio's workbenches enable graphical viewing of DNA, RNA, and protein sequences. The sequence(s) to be viewed can be imported in four different ways described below.
The sequence(s) can be imported in one of these four ways:
- Import from a file
- Import from GenBank through the GenBank search function
- Copy/paste from e.g. Word, Excel, e-mails or other applications
- Typing in nucleotides/amino acids
Sequences can be viewed in textual format or graphically. The graphical sequence viewer includes these features:
- Zoom options (including fit with, view all, and zoom to 100%)
- Showing of annotations/regions above the sequence
- Split screen, allowing
- viewing of 2 or more sequences at a time or
- viewing of one sequence at different perspectives (e.g. a nucleotide level view and a whole sequence overview at the same time)
- Different types of sequence layout:
- Space every 10 residues? (yes/no)
- Wrap sequences? (yes/no) i.e. showing sequences on more than one line
- Amount of residues in each line if wrapping is chosen
- Double stranded? (shows both strands of DNA sequences)
- Show residue-positions along the sequence? (yes/no)
- Choice of color residues (relevant when zoom level is at single residue level, including RasMol colors and Polarity colors)
- Individual choice of which types of annotations are to be shown along the sequence
- Choice of annotation layout:
- Show annotations (yes/no)
- Placing of annotations (on sequence / next to sequence)
- Show labels? (yes/no)
- Show as arrows? (yes/no)
- Use gradients when coloring the annotations?
- Showing of GenBank annotation texts when curser is placed on annotation
