Bio::Graphics::Glyph::translation - The "6-frame translation" glyph See L<Bio::Graphics::Panel> and L<Bio::Graphics::Glyph>. This glyph draws the conceptual translation of DNA sequences. At high magnifications, it simply draws lines indicating open reading frames. At low magnifications, it draws a conceptual protein translation. Options can be used to set 1-frame, 3-frame or 6-frame translations.

OPTIONS
The following options are standard among all Glyphs. See Bio::Graphics::Glyph for a full explanation. Option Description Default ------ ----------- ------- -fgcolor Foreground color black -outlinecolor Synonym for -fgcolor -bgcolor Background color turquoise -fillcolor Synonym for -bgcolor -linewidth Line width 1 -height Height of glyph 10 -font Glyph font gdSmallFont -connector Connector type 0 (false) -connector_color Connector color black -label Whether to draw a label 0 (false) -description Whether to draw a description 0 (false) -hilite Highlight color undef (no color) In addition to the common options, the following glyph-specific options are recognized: Option Description Default ------ ----------- ------- -translation Type of translation to 1frame perform. One of "1frame", "3frame", or "6frame" -strand Forward (+1) or reverse (-1) +1 translation. -frame0 Color for the first frame fgcolor -frame1 Color for the second frame fgcolor -frame2 Color for the third frame fgcolor -gridcolor Color for the horizontal lightgrey lines of the reading frames -start_codons Draw little arrowheads 0 (false) indicating start codons -stop_codons Draw little vertical ticks 1 (true) indicating stop codons -arrow_height Height of the start codon 1 arrowheads -show_sequence Show the amino acid sequence 1 (true) if there's room. -codontable Codon table to use 1 (see Bio::Tools::CodonTable) This produces a nice gbrowse display in which the DNA/GC Content glyph is sandwiched between the forward and reverse three-frame translations. The frames are color-coordinated with the example configuration for the "cds" glyph.
