Biological sequence diagrams are fundamental for visualizing various functional elements in protein or nucleotide sequences that enable a summarization and presentation of existing information as well as means of intuitive new discoveries. Here, we present a software package called illustrator of biological sequences (IBS) that can be used for representing the organization of either protein or nucleotide sequences in a convenient, efficient and precise manner. Multiple options are provided in IBS, and biological sequences can be manipulated, recolored or rescaled in a user-defined mode. Also, the final representational artwork can be directly exported into a publication-quality figure.
The standalone package of IBS was implemented in JAVA, while the online service was implemented in HTML5 and JavaScript. Both the standalone package and online service are freely available at http://ibs.biocuckoo.org.

生物序列图对于可视化蛋白质或核苷酸序列中的各种功能元件至关重要,它能够汇总和呈现现有信息,也是直观地进行新发现的手段。在此,我们展示了一个名为生物序列图示器(IBS)的软件包,它可用于以方便、高效且精确的方式展示蛋白质或核苷酸序列的结构。IBS提供了多种选项,生物序列能够以用户定义的模式进行操作、重新着色或重新缩放。此外,最终的代表性插图可以直接导出为具有出版质量的图形。
IBS的独立软件包用JAVA实现,而在线服务用HTML5和JavaScript实现。独立软件包和在线服务均可在http://ibs.biocuckoo.org免费获取。
