MuGeN User Manual


What is MuGeN ?

The Multi-Genome Navigator, or MuGeN, is a bioinformatics software package providing tools for exploring multiple annotated genomes along with in silico analysis results. It offers two distinct programs, one for interactive vizualization and navigation and another for the generation of images in various formats. Both programs can load annotated sequence data from a local file or retrieve it from databases across the network. Most of the parameters governing the way annotations and analysis results are displayed are customizable, either through the graphical user interface or with command-line parameters. The following sections show how to install and to use MuGeN before describing how to format home-made analysis results in order to integrate them in MuGeN.
