Summary: Covariance-based predictions of residue contacts and inter-residue distances are an increasingly popular data type in protein bioinformatics. Here we present ConPlot, a web-based application for convenient display and analysis of contact maps and distograms. Integration of predicted contact data with other predictions is often required to facilitate inference of structural features. ConPlot can therefore use the empty space near the contact map diagonal to display multiple coloured tracks representing other sequence-based predictions. Popular file formats are natively read and bespoke data can also be flexibly displayed. This novel visualization will enable easier interpretation of predicted contact maps.
Availability and implementation: available online at www.conplot.org, along with documentation and examples. Alternatively, ConPlot can be installed and used locally using the docker image from the project's Docker Hub repository. ConPlot is licensed under the BSD 3-Clause.
