🌍 This week, we had the pleasure of providing training to the new cohort of life sciences postgraduate students at the University of Dundee. An array of topics were covered from the basics of multiple sequence alignment to AlphaFold structure quality in Jalview. All the best for the future! ✨

🕵️‍♂️ Attention sequence sleuths! 🕵️‍♀️ 🔎 Did you know you can detect similar sequences of protein, DNA and RNA in Jalview using PCA? This makes it easier for conserved regions, including functional subgroups, to be identified. ▶️ Watch our training video to find out how: www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdCx...

🗣️ Did someone say secondary structure? In this training video, Suzanne demonstrates how JPred4 can be used to perform secondary structure prediction jobs on single protein sequences. Watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwTk...

🚀 Jalview 2.11.5 is here! New features include: ✅ Tree visualisation for enhanced protein secondary structure analysis ✅ Consensus colouring for alignments and subgroups ✅ Improved command line options for 3D structure visualisation Plus, key bug fixes and performance improvements.

✅ Import genomics VCF files and analyse data like a pro! Watch Mungo as he outlines how genetic variant data can be imported into and visualised in Jalview using our signature CDS-protein split-screen feature. Link here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_lR...
