Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs02:26

Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs

Sequencing of the human genome has opened up several best-kept secrets of the genome. Scientists have identified thousands of genome variations that exist within a population. These variations can be a single nucleotide or a larger chromosomal variation.
Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...
Evolutionary Relationships through Genome Comparisons02:54

Evolutionary Relationships through Genome Comparisons

Genome comparison is one of the excellent ways to interpret the evolutionary relationships between organisms. The basic principle of genome comparison is that if two species share a common feature, it is likely encoded by the DNA sequence conserved between both species. The advent of genome sequencing technologies in the late 20th century enabled scientists to understand the concept of conservation of domains between species and helped them to deduce evolutionary relationships across diverse...
FISH - Fluorescent In-situ Hybridization02:07

FISH - Fluorescent In-situ Hybridization

Fluorescence in situ hybridization, or FISH, was developed in the early 1980s and has quickly become one of the most widely used techniques in cytogenetics. Labeled probes are used to bind complementary DNA or RNA sequences on a chromosome or in a region within a cell. Earlier, the probes could only be obtained by cloning or reverse transcription of a DNA template. Currently, the probe oligonucleotides can be synthesized synthetically. Additionally, with the advancement of optical techniques,...

Area of Science:

  • Bioinformatics
  • Computational Biology
  • Genomics

Background:

  • Automated generation of multi-gene images is crucial for comparative genomics.
  • Visualizing gene structures and families aids evolutionary studies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce FeatureStack, a Perl module for automated multi-gene image generation.
  • To provide a tool that facilitates evolutionary studies of gene structures and families.

Main Methods:

  • FeatureStack accepts BioPerl-compliant gene or transcript features as input.
  • It renders features side-by-side using user-defined BioPerl glyphs.
  • Output images can be generated in Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) or Portable Network Graphics (PNG) formats.

Main Results:

  • FeatureStack enables rapid and automated generation of annotation-rich images.
  • The module includes a new BioPerl glyph, decorated_gene, for highlighting protein features.
  • Combined use of FeatureStack and decorated_gene aids evolutionary studies.

Conclusions:

  • FeatureStack and decorated_gene streamline the visualization of stacked gene models.
  • These tools significantly facilitate evolutionary studies of related gene structures and families.
  • The software is freely available on CPAN and GitHub.
