Sub Cellular Localization
From Protein Prediction 2 Winter Semester 2014
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
- 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)
- Good color scheme to highlight :
Application design
- Expected technical difficulties
- Wrong file input format
- Correct identification of localization
- Libraries
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
