Feature Update: Visibility of Reads Based on SAM Flags
SAM flags are part of the Sequence Alignment Map (SAM) file format. These flags are bitwise values that describe various...
Feature Update: Fine Control Over Data Displayed in Tables
Persephone uses tables in multiple parts of the interface. We have added extra context menus to most of them, providing...
Feature Update: Show 6-frame Translation
At a certain level of zoom, when it is possible to distinguish individual bases, we provide an option to display...
Feature Update: New Functionality For BAM Tracks
We significantly increased the limits on the amount of data displayed in BAM/CRAM tracks. There can be genomic regions with...
An Improved Intron Rendering
To enhance the visibility of protein-coding segments (CDS) in gene model glyphs, we are now displaying introns within the CDS...
The Cannabis Pangenome Is Available
The Cannabis pangenome from the Michael Lab at the Salk Institute is now available in Persephone. With previously loaded genomes...
The Spring Update: Drag&Drop VCF and Multiple Sequence Alignment
The Persephone version, published recently, presents a few improvements. Drag-and-drop VCF files. Users are now able to import their VCF files. The...
Feature Update: Detect Variants That Disrupt Splicing
Genetic variations impact gene translation beyond simple amino acid substitutions. A single nucleotide change or indel can disrupt a splice...
Feature Update: Export Local Variants
When you select genotyping samples, they are shown in the Variants track. Zoom deep enough to see the individual bases...
