Split Frame Views
++ Split Frame Views +
Jalview provides a special viewing mode to show Coding DNA (cDNA) and protein product alignments as a split view, with cDNA above and protein below. The two alignments are linked, allowing editing and analysis to be performed at both the peptide and nucleotide level. - Linked protein alignments also have an additional - cDNA Consensus annotation row, showing the - distribution of codons at each column - of the protein alignment. + Linked protein alignments also have an additional cDNA + Consensus annotation row, showing the distribution of codons at + each column of the protein alignment.

+Split Frame views allow the following:
An alignment annotation row on the protein alignment shows the cDNA consensus for each peptide column.
-This consensus may reveal variation in nucleotides coding for conserved protein residues.
Opening a Split Frame View
-A Split Frame View can be opened in one of the following ways:
-Add Sequences
-If you add (coding) DNA sequences to an open peptide alignment, or vice versa, and at least one DNA sequence translates to one of the
-peptide sequences, then the option to open in a split window is offered. The DNA may include start and/or stop codons, but no non-coding (intron)
-sequence.
-If more than one cDNA variant is present in the alignment, Jalview will first try to match these to protein sequences based on any retrieved cross-references, and failing that, pairwise as they are ordered in the alignments.

This option is available in Jalview Desktop (when adding sequences by any supported method), and Jalview applet (adding from textbox). -The additional options below apply to Jalview Desktop only.
