How to navigate Jalview’s (http://www.jalview.org) integrated multiple window viewers is demonstrated in this tutorial. Jalview is a bioinformatics software for visualizing sequence alignment and analysising primary, secondary and tertiary structure of proteins, RNA and DNA.
This video explains how to orientate and navigate around the Jalview interface. There are explanations of the help options, multiple window interface, locating group of residue alignments, cursor and normal mode.
Jalview collaborates with several partners to offer a broad range of sequence analysis tools including phylogenetic tree visualisation, consensus, conservation, and functional site analysis, plus secondary structure and disorder predictions.
Jalview can access wide range of data bases including PFAM, PDB, EMBL and Uniprot. It can read variety of file formats including FASTA, PFAM, MSF, Clustal, BLC, PIR, Stockholm. It utilizes many different multiple sequence analysis tools such as Clustal, Muscle, MAFFT, Probcons, TCoffee.
Jalview was developed in Geoff Barton's group (http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk) in School of Life Sciences (http://www.lifesci.dundee.ac.uk) at the University of Dundee (http://www.dundee.ac.uk) with the support of the BBSRC and Wellcome Trust. The team have also developed software JPRED (http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/www-j...) and JABAWS (http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/jabaws).
Jalview Online Training YouTube Channel is a free bioinformatics educational course suitable for Undergraduate and PhD students. Playlists include (a) Getting Started; (b) Selecting and Editing Sequences; (c) Colour, Appearance and Figure Generation; (d) Jalview Dundee. This online educational material was produced by Dr Suzanne Duce, School of Life Sciences, University of Dundee.
