NOTE: You must be using a Web browser that is the equivalent of, or more recent than, Netscape 2.0 to display Genomic View!!

Description

Genomic View is is a gateway to several map displays, including chromosomal features (Features Map), GBrowse, and side by side physical and genetic map representations (Physical and Genetic Map) for a large region of a yeast chromosome.

The S. cerevisiae Genomic View shows the sixteen chromosomes of S. cerevisiae illustrated as bar graphs. Each chromosome is a bar, and their relative sizes are accurate. A few genes are listed on each chromsome as markers and the centromeres are illustrated as black circles. The left arms of the chromosomes are to the left of the centromeres and the right arms are to the right. The approximate length of a chromosome can be determined by comparison to the numbers at the top of the graph, showing 200,000 bp increments. The Genomic View of the first four chromosomes is shown below:

Some examples of the map types are Features Map, GBrowse, and Physical and Genetic Map.

Using Genomic View

To use Genomic View, select the type of map you want to display from the "Map Type" pop-up menu (e.g., Features Map, GBrowse, or Physical and Genetic Map). Then use your mouse to click on any section of any chromosome. Note that when the cursor is positioned over a section of a chromosome, the "Selection" display shows the chromosomal basepair coordinates that will be shown in the selected map type.


Accessing Genomic View

S. cerevisiae Genomic View can be accessed by selecting the "Genomic View" option from the Yeast Maps page
