I-PV: a CIRCOS module for interactive protein sequence visualization

Bioinformatics. 2016 Feb 1;32(3):447-9. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btv579. Epub 2015 Oct 10.

Abstract

Summary: Today's genome browsers and protein databanks supply vast amounts of information about proteins. The challenge is to concisely bring together this information in an interactive and easy to generate format.

Availability and implementation: We have developed an interactive CIRCOS module called i-PV to visualize user supplied protein sequence, conservation and SNV data in a live presentable format. I-PV can be downloaded from http://www.i-pv.org.
