BioJSON Format
+The BioJSON Format was introduced in Jalview 2.9 to serve as a standard format for representing/exchanging Bioinformatics Alignment data in JSON. This is the first version of the specification and we welcome all feedbacks on how to make BioJSON better, sustainable and widely adopted worldwide.
+
+This page describes the data available in BioJSON format, the main content section was created with Docson - a resource which uses a JSON schema to generate a beautified and an interactive documentation.
+
+
Advantages of JSON/BioJSON
+
+
JSON is very popular and available in almost all programming languages
+
Integrates seamlessly with the HTTP rest architecture
+
Very light weight, self describing and easy to understand
+
Handles linked data very efficiently
+
+
+
Navigation Tips
+
+
When the mouse is hovered over the elements in the main content section, traversable elements become highlighted and clickable.
+
Click the âobjectâ button or plus â+â link to expand an object
+
Click the minus âââ to collapse an object
+
Click the parenthesis â{}â link to view the JSON schema which provides a more technical description of the data
+
When you expand an object the following information becomes visible: The variables in the object, their data types and the description of each variable. This exactly corresponds to how it appears in BioJSON

Main Content
+
+
Brief definition of key terms
+
+
Residue - This is a single unit of a Nucleic acid (RNA, DNA) or Amino acid (Protein).
+
Sequence - A Sequence contains an array of residues with basic details about it (i.e name, start/end positions, database source, etc)
+
Alignment - An alignment consists of an array of individual Sequences organised together, one above each other
+
Group - Sections of an alignment or Sequence can be coupled together to form a group
+
Annotation - Annotation provides various kinds of information for what is known about a sequence(Sequence Annotation), or a collection of sequences in the alignment (Alignment Annotation)
+
Feature - Used to store data of known properties for sections of a sequence or alignment
