CDS-plotcon – Detect Enhanced Conservation in Coding Sequences

CDS-plotcon

:: DESCRIPTION

The software package CDS-plotcon is specifically designed to search for conserved functional elements within CDSs. It uses an average model of the expected mutation patterns within CDSs (incorporating a nucleotide mutation matrix, amino acid substitution matrix, sequence divergence parameter t, mean synonymous:nonsynonymous substitution ratio V and phylogenetic tree; it can handle up to three overlapping CDSs in different read-frames). Using this, it calculates the expected number of mutations across the alignment in each column and compares this with the observed number of mutations. The results are plotted along the genome, and optionally passed through a sliding window (clipped) mean filter
