Pipit: visualizing functional impacts of structural variations
نویسندگان
چکیده
SUMMARY Pipit is a gene-centric interactive visualization tool designed to study structural genomic variations. Through focusing on individual genes as the functional unit, researchers are able to study and generate hypotheses on the biological impact of different structural variations, for instance, the deletion of dosage-sensitive genes or the formation of fusion genes. Pipit is a cross-platform Java application that visualizes structural variation data from Genome Variation Format files. AVAILABILITY Executables, source code, sample data, documentation and screencast are available at https://bitbucket.org/biovizleuven/pipit.

Drift, not selection, shapes toll‐like receptor variation among oceanic island populations
Understanding the relative role of different evolutionary forces in shaping the level and distribution of functional genetic diversity among natural populations is a key issue in evolutionary and conservation biology. To do so accurately genetic data must be analysed in conjunction with an unambiguous understanding of the historical processes that have acted upon the populations. Here, we focus...
متن کاملQuantum mechanical investigation of 4-hydroxy phenyl azobenzene adsorption on the boron nitride nanotubes
In this study, the adsorption of 4-hydroxy phenyl-azobenzene on the surface of (4, 0) zigzag open-end boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) has been investigated by quantum calculations. In order to find the preferred adsorption site, different positions and orientations were considered. The impacts of donor-acceptor electron delocalization on the structural and electronic properties and reactivity of ...

متن کاملHybridization and apparent hybridization between meadow pipit (Anthus pratensis) and water pipit (A. spinoletta).
Occasionally, even a single breeding event may provide significant biological information, of which the present report of a pairing between a female meadow pipit (Anthus pratensis) and a male water pipit (A. spinoletta) may be a good example. Events of mixed-species pairing appear to be relatively common in birds (ARNOLD 1997). However, only rarely has researchers investigated whether such pair...
