Utilisation of Segment for Displaying of DNA, RNA and Protein Related Images
Abstract
Sometimes bioinformation may be composed of several pictures or items of information. A single image of bioinformation may contain several views of an object. It may have a picture of the overall object and a close up of a particular component. As an example
suppose we have image for DNA, RNA and Protein. So, some user only wants to display DNA structure as well some other user wants
to display only RNA, someone wants Protein and DNA structure. There is also case when transformations will be applied to only
RNA while another structure of DNA will remain as it is. So, we wish to apply them to only a portion of the picture either for DNA
or for RNA or Protein or combination from group of these three structures. So, it is required to organize display file to reflect this
subpicture structure. For that the display file will be divided into segments where each segments corresponding to components of
the overall display. A visible segment will be displayed but an invisible segment will not be shown.
