Show

A 3D visualization program for displaying the lattice conformations of RNA secondary structures and for playing RNA folding movies.

OPTIONS

-i file
Read the sequence of bases (and optionally the sequence of turn directions) in seq or seq2 format from file.
-i2 file
Read base pairs in bp format from file. If file is not specified, then all complementary bases adjacent in the lattice are considered base pairs.
-o file
Write lattice conformation (a sequence of bases and a sequence of turn directions) in seq2 format to file when requested by user.
-movie
Turn on movie mode. Read the movie sequence of pull moves from stdin; each line of the input contains two numbers for the base index and the turn direction of a pull move. By default, movie is off.

EXAMPLES

./show.exe -i xxx.seq2
Display lattice conformation xxx.seq2.
./show.exe -i xxx.seq2 -i2 xxx.bp
Display lattice conformation xxx.seq2 with base pairs xxx.bp.
./show.exe -i xxx.seq2 -o yyy.seq2
Display lattice conformation xxx.seq2 and save modified conformation to yyy.seq2 when requested by user.
./fold.exe -i xxx.seq -movie | ./show.exe -i xxx.seq -movie
Play folding simulation movie for xxx.seq.
