SEXTANT display components. The image shows SEXTANT’s map (top right) and sequence (bottom) applets displaying part of a gene-rich region on human chromosome 22. Bars in the map applet indicate the type and location of individual features along the sequence, with gene-related features closest to the axis, and results of CARTA annotation in the outer tiers. The selected feature is marked by a black outline. The gray lines surrounding this feature and extending outward indicate the region displayed by the sequence applet. Within the sequence display, the selected region is marked by a box around the feature label and highlighting of the nucleic acid sequence. Just below the nucleotides is a conceptual translation with three-letter amino acid codes, and a graphic indicating a stop codon. The GC content of the sequence is shown as a bar graph beneath the translation. Other features overlapping the selected region are shown as lines and labels. The text display on the left was produced by clicking the Selected Feature in Detail button in the map applet, and shows the text record for this feature.
