What's new ?
-
-What's new ?
-If you are reading this then you will already have seen some of the recent changes
- made to Jalview.
- Jalview takes advantage of some of the more recent user interface developments
- in the Java programming language. For instance Jalview is now a multi windowed
- application, this keeps all your Jalview windows neatly together in one main
- application window.
-If you were familiar with the original Jalview, here is a list of important
- features you should know about the current development:
-
- - Editing sequences is no longer the default when mouse clicking the alignment.
- Instead, mouse clicking on the alignment creates a "selection region"
- which may be full sequences or groups of residues.
- - To insert or edit the gaps in one sequence in alignment, the "Shift"
- key must be held down when dragging the mouse.
- - To insert or edit gaps for a group of sequences, the "Alt" key
- (or in X windows the "Control" key) must be held down.
- - Selecting colour schemes in the colour menu either sets just the "background"
- colourscheme for the alignment, or - when the tickbox "Apply colour to
- all groups" is ticked, applies the scheme to the background and all groups
- defined on the alignment.
- - Use the right mouse button (apple and click on the Mac) whilst the pointer
- is within the selection area to access the "define" region menu
- to define a new region, give it a name, and change its colourscheme and display
- properties.
- - Conservation is automatically updated whenever the alignment is edited
- - There is no "quick draw" option
- - Edits can be undone, and redone!

+
+ What's new ?
+
+
+ Jalview 2.9.0b2 is a bug fix release for Jalview 2.9.
+ The release of Jalview 2.9 in September 2015 included
+ a multitude of bug fixes and minor improvements (both small, and
+ rather big!), it also brings major new capabilities for codon-level
+ analysis of protein alignments and the retrieval and manipulation of
+ structural data.
For the patches since version 2.9 was released, see the
+ Jalview 2.9.0b2 Release Notes.
+
+
+ Highlights in Jalview 2.9
+
+ - Visualisation, editing and analysis of
+ cDNA and Protein alignments
A new Split View window allows linked
+ protein and nucleotide sequence alignments to be viewed, edited,
+ and analysed as one.
cDNA alignments can also be
+ reconstructed from protein alignments calculated by Jalview's web
+ services, and update in response to edits in the amino acid view.
To
+ start experimenting with cDNA/Protein analysis, jut drop a file
+ containing cDNA sequences which code for proteins in an existing
+ alignment, and Jalview will do the rest.
+ - Enhanced Integration of UCSF Chimera
Jalview
+ 2.9 provides full support for the use of Chimera to view 3D
+ structures linked to alignment views in the Jalview Desktop. We've
+ also included support for saving Chimera sessions in Jalview
+ project files.
Jalview and Chimera communicate using local
+ web server connections, which may cause firewall alerts on some
+ systems, but has the advantage of allowing bidirectional
+ communication. Communication between Jalview and Chimera is now
+ much more responsive, and selected regions in Chimera are now
+ shown as highlighted regions in the Jalview desktop.
+ - Interactive querying of the PDBe
Jalview
+ users can now browse and retrieve 3D structure data from the PDB
+ via the PDBe
+ Search API (Gutmanas
+ et al 2014). Developed in collaboration with the PDBe group at
+ EMBL-EBI, the interface allows both structured and free-text
+ queries to be performed, and allows automatic selection of the
+ most relevant structures for an alignment acording to a variety of
+ criteria.
+ - Improved support for RNA visualisation
Jalview
+ 2.9 integrates the latest version of the VARNA RNA Viewer, and VARNA views
+ can also now be stored in Jalview projects. We've also dealt with
+ a number of lingering bugs in the VARNA/Jalview interface,
+ including the loss of pseudoknots when RNA secondary structure is
+ shown VARNA.
+ - Protein Secondary Structure predictions
+ with JPred4
Jalview includes a number of new features for
+ working with secondary structure predictions from the JPred4
+ server. These include new popup menu actions to automatically hide insertions and highlight
+ mutations in an alignment with respect to a Reference
+ Sequence. Jalview 2.9's new scrollable
+ SVG HTML export was also developed specifically for the JPred4
+ server.
