We Animate Genomes

Persephone®

A multi-genome browser carefully crafted using latest technologies.

Bioinformatics Storefront

Persephone® is a modern way for bioinformaticians to present genomic data to biologists

Browse in Style

We focus on efficient storage, optimized transfer and fast rendering of genomic information. Navigating through data sets is fun. Genome is not static anymore. ``It's alive!``

Communicate

We would be happy to show what a professional genome browser is capable of. Just send us an email. Thank you

and others…

  • Persephone has made a big difference to how we conduct our R&D. It has accelerated our molecular breeding efforts

    Glendon Ascough, Research Director, Starke Ayres

  • Our company will benefit from implementing this integrated software solution, which allows interactive querying and visualization of the rapidly growing amount of Big Genomics Data.

    Robert Graveland, Director of R&D, HZPC Holland

  • The Persephone genome browser impressed both our geneticists and bioinformaticians with its performance and user friendly interface.

    Dr. Jakob de Vlieg, Head of the Computational Life Sciences, Bayer CropScience

Free Web Version

A free, fully functional application is hosted on our website. The application serves data from our demo database, which is populated with numerous public genomes, such as wheat (IWGSC v2.1) or human (GRCh38). See the full list of available genomes here.

The latest news is updated on our blog.

From Our Blog

Docker installation

The entire software package can be installed as a Docker container. It can run on a local machine or in the cloud

Responsive Interface

The software was designed with performance in mind, handling large datasets with ease, while keeping memory usage to a minimum.

Vertical and Horizontal Layouts

Maps can be displayed horizontally and vertically

In-House Installation

Persephone can be set up on premise. Our team will provide detailed instructions and will guide you through the installation process. We can also help with data loading and software integration.

Customer-led Design

Our team will work with you to develop the exact features you need.

Drag-and-drop

Open local files in multiple formats, then visualize them alongside all the other data.

User Friendly

Persephone’s intuitive interface has been built based on suggestions from multiple researchers.

Visual BLAST and minimap2

Users can run BLAST search and evaluate its results graphically, integrating them with the rest of the genomic data. With a push of a button, entire chromosomes can be aligned in real time by running minimap2.

Export

Save displayed genomic features in various formats, including FASTA, Genbank, and CSV.
