SeqView, a Sequence Visualisation Program

A software program to help exploit a database of aligned protein sequences. In addition to the classical lists of sequences, a graphical representation is used to get a better overview of the information. As natural parameters, the type of amino acid and sequence position are used. Various plots or 3D representations are then updated. Examples are shown based on globin sequences from various species and on the abnormal human hemoglobins. The software should be of interest to protein engineers who need to know what variants are already known.

To see a demo using the variants from HbVar:
Download SeqView48D.zip (updated Jan. 25, 2008)
To install on a Windows computer, extract everything to C:\SeqView.
Further instructions included in the zip file are in SeqView-Notes.doc.
