VisGenome visualizes single and comparative representations for the rat, the mouse and the human chromosomes at different levels of detail. The tool offers smooth zooming and panning which is more flexible than seen in other browsers. It presents information available in Ensembl for single chromosomes, as well as homologies (orthologue predictions including ortholog one2one, apparent ortholog one2one, ortholog many2many) for any two chromosomes from different species. The application can query supporting data from Ensembl by invoking a link in a browser.
VisGenome可对大鼠、小鼠和人类染色体的单条及比较性图谱进行不同详细程度的可视化展示。该工具提供了平滑的缩放和平移功能,比其他浏览器更为灵活。它呈现了Ensembl中关于单条染色体的可用信息,以及来自不同物种的任意两条染色体之间的同源性(直系同源预测,包括直系同源一对一、明显直系同源一对一、直系同源多对多)。该应用程序可以通过在浏览器中调用链接来查询Ensembl的支持数据。
