Genomic interval sets are fundamental elements of genome annotation and are the output of countless bioinformatics applications. Nevertheless, tool support for the manual curation of these data is currently limited. We developed VARAN-GIE, an extension of the popular Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV) that adds functionality to edit, annotate and merge genomic interval sets. Data can easily be shared with other users and imported/exported from/to multiple common data formats.
VARAN-GIE binary releases, source-code, user guides and tutorials are available at https://github.com/popitsch/varan-gie/.
基因组区间集是基因组注释的基本要素，也是无数生物信息学应用程序的输出。然而，目前用于这些数据的手动管理的工具支持非常有限。我们开发了 VARAN-GIE，这是流行的综合基因组浏览器（IGV）的扩展，它增加了编辑、注释和合并基因组区间集的功能。数据可以轻松地与其他用户共享，并可以从多种常见数据格式导入/导出。
VARAN-GIE 的二进制版本、源代码、用户指南和教程可在 https://github.com/popitsch/varan-gie/ 上获得。
