Sub Cellular Localization

Sub Cellular Localization in Cell

Objective

"To visualize biological cells and highlight by a user selected sub-cellular compartments in a way that they stand out from the un-selected ones"

GUI mockups

Figure 1 : Number of Proteins in cell compartment

Figure 2 : Protein's score in cell compartment

• User experience
  • Interactivity
  • Easy identification of the number of proteins in cell compartment
  • Good visualization of data
• Functionality
  • Parsing the user input “txt” file
  • Mapping the file content into visualization
• Features
  • Good color scheme to highlight :
    • Number of proteins in a compartment
    • Score of each protein (confidence)

Application design

• Expected technical difficulties
  • Wrong file input format
  • Correct identification of localization
• Libraries
  • D3 - Zoomdata
    • https://live.zoomdata.com/zoomdata/visualization#51db7ad4e4b04caf9ab346db-51db7ad4e4b04caf9ab346d5

Data

• Remarks about input format
  • Each text file must contain proteins of only one type of cell
  • Text file format:
    • Protein id
    • Score (certainty of existence of particular protein within a cell compartment)
    • Localization (component)
    • Cell type
