- What's new ? + What's new in Jalview 2.10.2 ?

- Jalview 2.9 has been in development since December 2014. In addition - to 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 full list of changes, see the - Jalview 2.9 Release Notes. + Full details about Jalview 2.10.2 are in the Release Notes, but the + highlights are below.

Update to JABAWS 2.2
Jalview's + alignment, protein conservation analysis, and protein disorder and + RNA secondary structure prediction services are now provided by JABAWS 2.2. + Several of the programs provided as services have been updated, so + their options and parameters have changed.
New preferences for opening + web pages for database cross-references via the UK Elixir's + EMBL-EBI's MIRIAM database and identifiers.org services. +

- Highlights in Jalview 2.9 + Experimental Features +

+ This release of Jalview includes a new option in the Jalview Desktop + that allows you to try out features that are still in development. + To access the features described below, please first enable the Tools→Enable + Experimental Features option, and then restart Jalview. +

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.
Annotation transfer between Chimera and Jalview
Two + new entries in + the Chimera viewer's Chimera menu allow positional annotation to + be exchanged between Chimera and Jalview.
