Figure 1. The basic framework of CisGenome.

Figure 1

CisGenome contains three core components: a graphic user interface (GUI), a built-in browser (CisGenome browser), and a set of underlying data analysis algorithms. The GUI allows users to load raw data and choose specific analysis functions. Core programs will be called to perform the analysis. Results are displayed in the CisGenome browser and can be exported in various formats. Pre-compiled genome databases are required to support analyses involving sequence and gene annotation information. CisGenome contains functions to construct such databases from standard external data resources. Databases for a few commonly used species can be downloaded directly from the CisGenome website.
