Online tool for creating figures of gene with its features

Is there an online and free tool for creating figures of gene with its features? Simple figures, like a bar representing the gene and smaller bars inside it representing motifs.

Thank you

Yes, check out the Genomics 2 Proteins portal. The tool allow you to map any feature, including domains onto a protein structure and capture high resolution images of both the features in sequence and structure.

You should also check out the UniProt Structure viewer and RCSB PDB Sequence Structure viewer. These won't let you capture a high resolution image of the sequence, but will for the structure. You may not be able to highlight all domains with these, but you could highlight 1 domain at a time in each of these tools and capture a high resolution image.

Offline, you can use the PyMOL viewer. You will need to annotate the domains though, so this may not address your needs.
