The software recognizes common genomic data formats from micro-array or sequencing based platforms and offers a library of operations to process raw data into visualized tracks. GenPlay displays these tracks to summarize gene structure, gene expression, repeat families, and CPG islands.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4646\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4646\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/technewslit.com\/sciencebusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/GenPlay_ScreenShot.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4646 \" title=\"GenPlay_ScreenShot\" src=\"http:\/\/technewslit.com\/sciencebusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/GenPlay_ScreenShot-300x187.jpg\" alt=\"Screen shot of GenPlay display (Albert Einstein College of Medicine)\" width=\"300\" height=\"187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/technewslit.com\/sciencebusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/GenPlay_ScreenShot-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/technewslit.com\/sciencebusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/GenPlay_ScreenShot-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/technewslit.com\/sciencebusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/GenPlay_ScreenShot-150x93.jpg 150w, https:\/\/technewslit.com\/sciencebusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/GenPlay_ScreenShot-400x250.jpg 400w, https:\/\/technewslit.com\/sciencebusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/GenPlay_ScreenShot.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4646\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Screen shot of GenPlay; click on image for full-size display (Albert Einstein College of Medicine)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.genplay.net\/\">program&#8217;s Web site<\/a> has instructions and demos, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/genplay.einstein.yu.edu\/svn\/GenPlay\">source code<\/a> is available for download.<\/p>\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"http:\/\/sciencebusiness.technewslit.com\/?p=3441\">Online Cancer Genomics Tool for Clinicians Unveiled<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 *\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 *<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, part of Yeshiva University in Bronx, New York have written software to make the analysis of genomic data easier for fellow researchers.
