BioCircos.js is an open source interactive Javascript library to interactive display biological data on the web

Jit — Fri, 19 Jan 2018 15:03:51 -0600

BioCircos.js is an open source interactive Javascript library which provides an easy way to interactive display biological data on the web. It implements a raster-based SVG visualization using the open source Javascript framework jquery.js. BioCircos.js is multiplatform and works in all major internet browsers (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari, Opera). Its speed is determined by the client’s hardware and internet browser. For smoothest user experience, we recommend Google Chrome.

BioCircos.js provides SNP, CNV, HEATMAP, LINK, LINE, SCATTER, ARC, TEXT, and HISTGRAMmodules to display genome-wide genetic variations (SNPs, CNVs and chromosome rearrangement), gene expression and biomolecule interactions. BioCircos.js also provides BACKGROUND module to display background and axis circles. Tooltips showing detailed information of SVG elements are also provided.

PhyloGrapher - Graph Visualization Tool

Jitendra Prajapati — Wed, 06 Apr 2016 19:06:48 -0500

PhyloGrapher is a program designed to visualize and study evolutionary relationships within families of homologous genes or proteins (elements).PhyloGrapher is a drawing tool that generates custom graphs for a given set of elements. In general, it is possible to use PhyloGrapher to visualize any type of relations between elements.

ANItools web: a web tool for fast genome comparison within multiple bacterial strains

Jit — Wed, 14 Nov 2018 04:34:23 -0600

ANItools is a software package written by PERL scripts that can be run in a Linux/Unix system. If you want to compare bacterial genomes and calculate their average nucleotide identity (ANI), you could download and run this program directly. Or you could send us the genome sequence by email. Then we will do the analysis work for you.

chromoMap-An R package for Interactive visualization and mapping of human chromosomes

Rahul Nayak — Mon, 25 Jun 2018 17:22:24 -0500

chromoMap is an R package that provides interactive, configurable and elegant graphics visualization of the human chromosomes allowing users to map chromosome elements (like genes, SNPs etc.) on the chromosome plot. It introduces a special plot viz. the "chromosome heatmap" that, in addition to mapping elements, can visualize the data associated with chromosome elements (like gene expression) in the form of heat colors which can be highly advantageous in the scientific interpretations and research work. Because of the enormous size of the chromosomes, it is impractical to visualize each element on the same plot. But chromoMap plots provide a magnified view for each of chromosome location to render additional information and visualization specific for that location. You can map thousands of genes and can view all mappings easily. Users can investigate the detailed information about the mappings (like gene names or total genes mapped on a location) or can view the magnified single or double stranded view of the chromosome at a location showing each mapped element in sequential order (You will see in the demos below). Not ony that, the plots can be saved as HTML documents that can be customized and shared easily. In addition, you can include them in R Markdown or in R Shiny applications.

BamView: a free interactive display of read alignments in BAM data files

Neel — Fri, 09 Nov 2018 13:43:22 -0600

To run the application on UNIX from the downloaded jar file run the UNIX:

java -mx512m -jar BamView.jar

and extra command line options are given when '-h' is used:

java -jar BamView.jar -h

BAM files can be specified on the command line with the '-a' option:

java -mx512m -jar BamView.jar -a pathToFile/sorted.bam

If a BAM filename is not given on the command line BamView will prompt for a file to be entered. The BAM index file should have the same name as the BAM file but with a '.bai' suffix. Multiple BAM files can be loaded and overlaid in the viewer. To make this easier BamView will read in files that contain a list of filenames.
