SEView: A Java Applet for Browsing Molecular Sequence Data

Abstract

SEView is a Java applet that represents known or predicted elements of a protein or nucleotide sequence. It replaces or supplements the textual format of databases or program output with an interactive, graphical representation that is easily available through a WWW browser. Independence from the source data's format is achieved through a description language and ad hoc translators, which make the system versatile and flexible.
