Residue coloring
These preferences make it possible to color both the residue letter and set a background color for the residue.
- Non-standard residues. For nucleotide sequences this will color the residues
that are not C, G, A, T or U. For amino acids only B, Z, and X are colored as non-standard residues.
- Foreground color. Sets the color of the letter. Click the color box to change the color.
- Background color. Sets the background color of the residues. Click the color box to change the color.
- Rasmol colors. Colors the residues according to the Rasmol color scheme.
See http://www.openrasmol.org/doc/rasmol.html- Foreground color. Sets the color of the letter. Click the color box to change the color.
- Background color. Sets the background color of the residues. Click the color box to change the color.
- Polarity colors (only protein). Colors the residues according to the following categories:
- Green neutral, polar
- Black neutral, nonpolar
- Red acidic, polar
- Blue basic ,polar
- As with other options, you can choose to set or change the coloring for either the residue letter or its background:
- Foreground color. Sets the color of the letter. Click the color box to change the color.
- Background color. Sets the background color of the residues. Click the color box to change the color.
- Trace colors (only DNA). Colors the residues according to the color conventions of chromatogram traces: A=green, C=blue, G=black, and T=red.
- Foreground color. Sets the color of the letter.
- Background color. Sets the background color of the residues.
