To have SeqTool in your page, add <code><b><seqtool/></b></code> in the wikitext, including the <b>/</b> after the word "seqtool". It is recommended to put that outside and before the <code><StructureSection></code> tag, so that the full width of screen is available for the sequence display and its search box. | To have SeqTool in your page, add <code><b><seqtool/></b></code> in the wikitext, including the <b>/</b> after the word "seqtool".

The purpose of this tool is to make it easy to relate sequence to 3D structure within any Proteopedia page. The listing is kept simple on purpose; sequence annotations such as secondary structure or sequence motifs can be viewed in other databases, and need not be shown here. | |||

Whenever a model is loaded into JSmol, a sequence listing is displayed for each chain. For saving space, only one chain is displayed at a time; such chain may be chosen from a drop-down menu. If the model has a single chain, it will be displayed by default. | Whenever a model is loaded into JSmol, a sequence listing is displayed for each chain.
