Color Demo

This page uses the Java SStructView applet to display a Secondary Structure with different colored bases. It also demonstrates the "Find" feature.

This is a Java applet displayed using the ARCHIVE tag. It requires Netscape Navigator to run.

Color distinctions are difficult to make when the bases are small so you may have to zoom in a few times to see the colors. This demo applet shows:

Bases 1 - 49 are drawn in different background colors by groups of 10. The colors are yellow, cyan, orange, magenta, pink.
Bases 50 - 59 are drawn with a yellow background and a custom-defined green foreground (RGB values = 0,120,0).
Bases 60 - 69 are drawn with a yellow background and a red foreground.
The default background color for bases is set to a custom-defined light gray (RGB=235,235,235).

You can type the number of any base into the Find field and click "Find" to locate that base in the structure (it will be selected).

The data file is e.coli16s.v1.2.coord. The HTML code to run this example is:

<APPLET CODE="SStructView.class" ARCHIVE="SStructView.zip" NAME="SSApplet" WIDTH="500" HEIGHT="300" ALIGN="BOTTOM">
<PARAM NAME="structure-data-URL" VALUE="http://www-smi.stanford.edu/projects/helix/sstructview/data/e.coli16s.v1.2.coord">
<PARAM NAME="default-background" VALUE="235,235,235">
<PARAM NAME="show-controls" VALUE="true">
</APPLET>
