From: Evading the annotation bottleneck: using sequence similarity to search non-sequence gene data
Example output of quickImage. The query sequence was X. tropicalis myf5, used to retrieve image data for this and related genes. The upper panel shows alignment and similarity between the query sequence and the matching image source sequences. The first three sets of retrieved images are shown; for each set, the accession number of the image source sequence and the best BLAST matches against human, mouse and Xenopus proteins are provided for identification purposes, as well as the originating image collection and species. Images marked A and B show highly similar expression of myf5 in the two frog species at the same development stage. The image marked C shows an interestingly similar expression pattern for the related gene myod/myf3 at a slightly later stage.
