In-Depth Information
Fig. 3. Graph Layout dialog. Six grid layout algorithms (BLK, CB, SCCB, Eades, Random Grid, Adjustment) are implemented.
Subcellular localization information can be used for layout. Layout parameters can be set up using the “Option” button.
shape. In Fig. 4, elements in the nucleus,
e.g.
transcription process, pri-micro RNA entity, are arranged
on the nucleus cell component while elements in the cytoplasm,
e.g.
, the translation process, are put on
the cytoplasm cell component. It is difficult to generate such a layout with such complicated cellular
location information using the force directed based layout algorithms. This is a unique feature of Cell
Illustrator 4.0 that is superior to other such software applications.
CSML 3.0 and import from and export to other formats
The native XML format of Cell Illustrator 1.0 was CSML 1.9 which aimed to represent the HFPNe
simulation model with custom graphical information. Until now, various pathway databases were built
