Introduction to the Spin Sequence Display

Spin also has a sequence display window in which the user can view the sequence in textual form. This window allows the user to scroll along the sequence. Users can view one or both strands, can switch on displays of the encoded amino acids in up to six reading frames, can switch on a display of the restriction enzyme sites, and can perform other simple subsequence or string searches to locate features in the sequence. In the figure shown below the user has switched on a three phase translation on the top strand, double stranded sequence, and a restriction enzyme search.

The sequence cursor can be under the control of the graphics cursor i.e. the cursor in the sequence viewer can be moved by the user dragging the cursor in the graphics window. Similarly the cursor in the graphics plots can be moved by the sequence viewer cursor.
