Bio::Graphics::Glyph::decorated_gene(3pm)

NAME
Bio::Graphics::Glyph::decorated_gene - A GFF3-compatible gene glyph with protein decorations

SYNOPSIS
  See L<Bio::Graphics::Panel> and L<Bio::Graphics::Glyph>.

DESCRIPTION
This glyph has the same functionality as the Bio::Graphics::Glyph::gene glyph, but uses the Bio::Graphics::Glyph::decorated_transcript glyph instead of the Bio::Graphics::Glyph::processed_transcript glyph to draw transcripts.

One usecase for the 'decorated_gene' glyph is to highlight protein features of different splice forms of the same gene to see how splice forms differ in terms of protein features, for example the presence of predicted signal peptides or protein domains.

See Bio::Graphics::Glyph::decorated_transcript for a description of how to provide protein decorations for transcripts.
