- - Print
- Jalview will print the alignment using the current fonts
- and colours of your alignment. If the alignment has annotations visible,
- these will be printed below the alignment. If the alignment is wrapped
- the number of residues per line of your alignment will depend on the paper
- width or your alignment window width, whichever is the smaller.
- - Load Associated Tree
- Jalview can view trees stored in the Newick
- file format, and associate them with the alignment. Note: the ids of the
- tree file and your alignment MUST be the same.
- - Load Features / Annotations
- Load files describing precalculated sequence
- features or alignment
- annotations.
- - Close
- Close the alignment window. Make sure you have saved your
- alignment before you close - either as a Jalview project or by using the
- Save As menu.

-
- - Edit
-
- - Undo
- This will undo any edits you make to the alignment. This applies to insertion
- or deletion of gaps, cutting residues or sequences from the alignment
- or pasting sequences to the current alignment or sorting the alignment.
- NOTE: It DOES NOT undo colour changes, adjustments to
- group sizes, or changes to the annotation panel.
- - Redo
- Any actions which you undo can be redone using redo.
- - Cut
- This will make a copy of the currently selected residues
- before removing them from your alignment. Click on a sequence name if
- you wish to select a whole sequence.
- Use <CTRL> and X (<APPLE> and X on MacOSX) to cut.
- - Copy
- Copies the currently selected residues to the system clipboard - you
- can also do this by pressing <CTRL> and C (<APPLE> and C on
- MacOSX).
- If you try to paste the clipboard contents to a text editor, you will
- see the format of the copied residues FASTA.

-
- - To New Alignment
- A new alignment window will be created from sequences
- previously copied or cut to the system clipboard.
- Use <CTRL> and V(<APPLE> and V on MacOSX) to paste.
- - Add To This Alignment
- Copied sequences from another alignment window can be
- added to the current Jalview alignment.
-
-
- - Delete
- This will delete the currently selected residues without
- copying them to the clipboard. Like the other edit operations, this can
- be undone with Undo.
- - Select All
- Selects all the sequences and residues in the alignment.
-
- Use <CTRL> and A (<APPLE> and A on a MacOSX) to select all.
- - Deselect All
- Removes the current selection box (red dashed box) from the
- alignment window. All selected sequences, residues and marked columns
- will be deselected.

- - Invert Selection
- Any sequence ids currently not selected will replace the
- current selection.
- - Undefine Groups
- The alignment will be reset with no defined groups.
- WARNING: This cannot be undone.
- - Remove Left
- If the alignment has marked columns, the alignment will be
- trimmed to the left of the leftmost marked column. To mark a column, mouse
- click the scale bar above the alignment. Click again to unmark a column,
- or select "Deselect All" to deselect all columns.
- - Remove Right
- If the alignment has marked columns, the alignment will be
- trimmed to the left of the leftmost marked column. To mark a column, mouse
- click the scale bar above the alignment. Click again to unmark a column,
- or select "Deselect All" to deselect all columns.
- - Remove Empty Columns
- All columns which only contain gap characters ("-",
- ".") will be deleted.
- You may set the default gap character in preferences.
-
- - Remove All Gaps
- Gap characters ("-", ".") will be deleted from
- the selected area of the alignment. If no selection is made, ALL the gaps
- in the alignment will be removed.
- You may set the default gap character in preferences.
-
- - Remove Redundancy
- Selecting this option brings up a window asking you to select
- a threshold. If the percentage identity between any two sequences (under
- the current alignment) exceeds this value then one of the sequences (the
- shorter) is discarded. Press the "Apply" button to remove redundant
- sequences. The "Undo" button will undo the last redundancy deletion.
- - Pad Gaps
- When selected, the alignment will be kept at minimal
- width (so there no empty columns before or after the first or last aligned
- residue) and all sequences will be padded with gap characters to
- the before and after their terminating residues.
- This switch is useful when making a tree using unaligned
- sequences and when working with alignment analysis programs which
- require 'properly aligned sequences' to be all the same length.
- You may set the default for Pad Gaps in the preferences.

- - Font
- Change the font of the display from the "Choose Font"
- dialog box, which is shown when this item is selected.
- - Smooth Fonts
- If selected, the alignment will be drawn with anti-aliasing on which looks
- better, but performace is reduced.
-
- - Wrap
- When ticked, the alignment display is "wrapped"
- to the width of the alignment window. This is useful if your alignment
- has only a few sequences to view its full width at once.
- Options are available to show the residue numbering at the start and/or
- end of an alignment as well as showing the alignment position above each
- sequence row.
- NOTE: When in wrapped alignment view, the alignment cannot
- be edited or have regions selected on it.
- - Show Full Sequence ID
- If this box is selected the sequence name will have the start
- and end position of the sequence appended to the name, in the format NAME/START-END
- - Boxes
- If this is selected the background of a residue will be coloured using
- the selected background colour. Useful if used in conjunction with "Colour
- Text."
- - Text
- If this is selected the residues will be displayed using
- the standard 1 character amino acid alphabet.
- - Colour Text
- If this is selected the residues will be coloured according
- to the background colour associated with that residue. The colour is slightly
- darker than background so the amino acid symbol remains visible.
- - Show Gaps
- When this is selected, gap characters will be displayed as
- "." or "-". If unselected, then gap characters will
- appear as blank spaces.
- You may set the default gap character in preferences.
- - Show Annotations
- If this is selected the "Annotation Panel" will
- be displayed below the alignment. The default setting is to display the
- conservation calculation, quality calculation and consensus values as
- bar charts.
- - Fetch Sequence Features
- If the sequence names are Swissprot entries Jalview will
- use the names to retrieve sequence
- features from the EBI. Features which are 1 residue in length are
- coloured red, sequences longer than 1 residue are coloured blue. Move
- the mouse over a coloured feature to display the details of the feature.
-
- Note: The retrieved information will update the sequence start and end
- labels if they are incorrect.

- appears to be doing nothing!
- - Above Identity Threshold
- See Above Percentage
- Identity.
- - Modify Identity Threshold
- Use this to set the threshold value for colouring above Identity.
- Useful if the window has been closed.
-
- - By Annotation
- Colours the alignment on a per-column value from a specified annotation.
- See Annotation Colouring.
-
-
-
- Calculate
-
- - Sort
-
- - by ID
- This will sort the sequences according to sequence name. If the sort
- is repeated, the order of the sorted sequences will be inverted.
- - by Group
- This will sort the sequences according to sequence name.
- If the sort is repeated, the order of the sorted sequences will be
- inverted.
- - by Pairwise Identity
- This will sort the selected sequences by their percentage
- identity to the consensus sequence. The most similar sequence is put
- at the top.
- - The Sort menu will
- have some additional options if you have just done a multiple alignment
- calculation, or opened a tree viewer window.
-
-
- - Calculate Tree
- Functions for calculating trees on the alignment or the currently
- selected region. See calculating trees.
-
- - Average Distance Using % Identity
- - Neighbour Joining Using % Identity
- - Average Distance Using Blosum62
- - Neighbour Joining Using Blosum62
-
-
- - Pairwise Alignments
- Applies Smith and Waterman algorithm to selected sequences. See pairwise
- alignments.
- - Principal Component Analysis
- Shows a spatial clustering of the sequences based on the BLOSUM62
- scores in the alignment. See Principal
- Component Analysis.
- - Translate cDNA
- If you are viewing a cDNA alignment a very simple translation service
- is available. The translation ignores all gaps in the cDNA sequences.
-
-
-
-
- Web Service
- Selecting one of the following menu items starts a remote service
- on compute facilities at the University of Dundee. You need a continuous network
- connection in order to use these services through Jalview.
-
- - Alignment
-
- - ClustalW Multiple Sequence Alignment
- Submits all, or just the currently selected sequences for alignment
- with clustal W.
- - ClustalW Multiple Sequence Alignment Realign
- Submits the alignment or currently selected region for re-alignment
- with clustal W. Use this if you have added some new sequences to an
- existing alignment.
- - Muscle Multiple Protein Sequence Alignment
- Submits all, or jut the currently selected sequences for alignment
- using Muscle. Do not use this if you are working with nucleic acid
- sequences.
-
-
- - Secondary Structure Prediction
-
- - JPred Secondary Structure Prediction
- Secondary structure prediction by network consensus. The behaviour
- of this calculation depends on the current selection:
- - If nothing is selected, and the displayed sequences appear to
- be aligned, then a JNet prediction will be run for the first sequence
- in the alignment, using the current alignment. Otherwise the first
- sequence will be submitted for prediction.
- - If just one sequence (or a region on one sequence) has been
- selected, it will be submitted to the automatic JNet prediction server
- for homolog detection and prediction.
- - If a set of sequences are selected, and they appear to be aligned,
- then the alignment will be used for a Jnet prediction on the first
- sequence selected in the set (that is, the one that was first clicked
- on).

+ is repeated, the order of the sorted sequences will be
+ inverted.
+ - by Length
This
+ will sort the sequences according to their length
+ (excluding gap characters). If the sort is repeated, the
+ order of the sorted sequences will be inverted.
+ - by Group
This
+ will sort the sequences according to sequence name. If the
+ sort is repeated, the order of the sorted sequences will
+ be inverted.
+ - by Pairwise Identity
+ This will sort the selected sequences by their
+ percentage identity to the consensus sequence. The most
+ similar sequence is put at the top.
+ - The Sort
+ menu will have some additional options if you have just
+ done a multiple alignment calculation, or opened a tree
+ viewer window.
+
+
+ - Calculate Tree
Functions
+ for calculating trees on the alignment or the currently
+ selected region. See calculating
+ trees.
+
+
+ - Neighbour Joining Using PAM250
+ - Neighbour Joining Using Sequence
+ Feature Similarity
+ - Neighbour Joining Using Blosum62
+ - Neighbour Joining Using % Identity
+ - Average Distance Using PAM250
+ - Average Distance Using Sequence
+ Feature Similarity
+ - Average Distance Using Blosum62
+ - Average Distance Using % Identity
+
Note: Since Version 2.8.1, a number of
+ additional similarity measures for tree calculation are
+ provided in this menu.
+ - Pairwise Alignments
Applies
+ Smith and Waterman algorithm to selected sequences. See pairwise alignments.
+
+ - Principal Component Analysis
Shows
+ a spatial clustering of the sequences based on similarity
+ scores calculated with the alignment. See Principal Component Analysis.
+
+ - Extract Scores ... (optional)
This
+ option is only visible if Jalview detects one or more
+ white-space separated values in the description line of the
+ alignment sequences.
When selected, these numbers are
+ parsed into sequence associated annotation which can then be
+ used to sort the alignment via the Sort by→Score menu.
+
+ - Autocalculate Consensus
For
+ large alignments it can be useful to deselect
+ "Autocalculate Consensus" when editing. This
+ prevents the sometimes lengthy calculations performed after
+ each sequence edit.
+ - Sort With New Tree
When
+ enabled, Jalview will automatically sort the alignment when a
+ new tree is calculated or loaded onto it.
+ - Show Flanking Regions
Opens
+ a new alignment window showing any additional sequence data
+ either side of the current alignment. Useful in conjunction
+ with 'Fetch Database References' when the 'Trim Retrieved
+ Sequences' option is disabled to retrieve full length
+ sequences for a set of aligned peptides.
+
+
+ Web Service Menu
This menu
+ is dynamic, and may contain user-defined web service entries in
+ addition to any of the following ones:
+
+ - Fetch DB References
This
+ submenu contains options for accessing any of the database
+ services that Jalview is aware of (e.g. DAS sequence servers
+ and the WSDBFetch service provided by the EBI) to verify
+ sequence start/end positions and retrieve all database cross
+ references and PDB ids associated with all or just the
+ selected sequences in the alignment.
+
+ - 'Trim Retrieved Sequences' - when checked, Jalview
+ will discard any additional sequence data for accessions
+ associated with sequences in the alignment.
Note:
+ Disabling this could cause out of memory errors when
+ working with genomic sequence records !
Added
+ in Jalview 2.8.1
+
+ - 'Standard Databases' will check sequences against
+ the EBI databases plus any active DAS sequence sources<
+
Other sub-menus allow you to pick a specific source to query
+ - sources are listed alphabetically according to their
+ nickname.
+
+
+ Selecting items from the following submenus will start a
+ remote service on compute facilities at the University of Dundee,
+ or elsewhere. You need a continuous network connection in order to
+ use these services through Jalview.
+
+ - Alignment
+ Align the currently selected sequences or all sequences
+ in the alignment, or re-align unaligned sequences to the
+ aligned sequences. Entries in this menu provide access to the
+ various alignment programs supported by JABAWS. See the Multiple
+ Sequence Alignment webservice client entry for more
+ information.
+
+ - Secondary Structure Prediction
+
+ - JPred Secondary Structure Prediction
+ Secondary structure prediction by network
+ consensus. See the Jpred3
+ client entry for more information. The behaviour of this
+ calculation depends on the current selection:
+
+ - If nothing is selected, and the displayed
+ sequences appear to be aligned, then a JNet prediction
+ will be run for the first sequence in the alignment,
+ using the current alignment. Otherwise the first
+ sequence will be submitted for prediction.
+ - If just one sequence (or a region on one
+ sequence) has been selected, it will be submitted to
+ the automatic JNet prediction server for homolog
+ detection and prediction.
+ - If a set of sequences are selected, and they
+ appear to be aligned, then the alignment will be used
+ for a Jnet prediction on the first
+ sequence in the set (that is, the one that appears
+ first in the alignment window).
+
+
+
+
+ - Analysis
+
+ - Multi-Harmony
Performs
+ functional residue analysis on a protein family alignment
+ with sub-families defined on it. See the Multi-Harmony service entry for more information.
