DESCRIPTION

A module for generating SVG output of Pictogram display for consensus motifs. This method of representation was describe by Burge and colleagues: (Burge, C.B.,Tuschl, T., Sharp, P.A. in The RNA world II, 525-560, CSHL press, 1999)

This is a simple module that takes in an array of sequences (assuming equal lengths) and calculates relative base frequencies where the height of each letter reflects the frequency of each nucleotide at a given position. It can also plot the information content at each position scaled by the background frequencies of each nucleotide.

It requires the SVG-2.26 or later module by Ronan Oger available at http://www.cpan.org

Recommended viewing of the SVG is the plugin available at Adobe: http://www.adobe.com/svg
