How to plot gene cluster

Dear all,

I have a fasta sequences of a bacterium operon and I know the gene annotations in it. How should I visualize the gene cluster orgnization like the image in the following link?

Do you know any software that can do this?

I will appreciate anyone who can help.

Best regards.

IGV should do the trick no? Are these sequences next to each other?

If not, you can rely on pyGenomeTracks to plot each sequence next to each other in a nice and automated manner: https://github.com/deeptools/pyGenomeTracks

Otherwise, you can use illustrator or Inkscape if you want to just do it for a bunch of sequences, take care to have each feature with a size in mm corresponding to the sequences length so everything is properly scaled.

Another simple way would be to use fancygene, but the tool doesn't exist anymore.
