SaaienTist: First test release of circular genome browser

  • brentongraveley · 5 months ago
    Hi,

    This is a great browser with lots of potential. I'm working on getting this set up for analyzing Drosophila data. The install with the test data worked fine, however, when I substitute this for corresponding Drosophila data, the program won't work. One thing I'm wondering about is chromosome nomenclature. Drosophila chromosomes are called chr2L, chr3R, etc. not just numbers. Will this cause it to not work?

    Thanks,

    Thanks brentongraveley,

    As this is still nothing more than alpha some things are still baked-in. The chromosome names and lengths as well as the position of the centromeres is in a file called meta_data.tsv. Try to change that for the Drosophila case. It might work (and yet again: it might not (yet)).

    Good luck,
    jan.

    Brentongraveley,

    The genome size is also hard-coded into pARP at the moment. I'll change that so that it can work with non-human genomes.

    UPDATE: The code has now been changed so that it should work for other species as well.
