glue-genes 1.2.2

Multidimensional data visualization for genomics

The glue-genes meta-package

glue genes is a custom version of the glue software for the visual exploration of genomics data, developed in partnership with The Jackson Laboratory.

Features

glue genes provides all the core features of glue:

• Interactive, linked statistical graphics
• A user interface for 'glueing' together multiple datasets with complicated relationships
• A highly scriptable and extendable environment

In addition, glue genes provides:

• Data loaders for genomics data file formats, including multiresolution images and transcriptomics data.
• Viewers including: 2D Heatmap, Small Multiples, QTL Viewer
• Menubar plug-ins to facilitate analysis of single-cell and spatial transcriptomics data

Install

See the glue genes documentation for installation help.

We recommend installing into a new virtual environment. To install the current stable version use:

pip install glue-genes[qt6]

or

pip install glue-genes[qt5]

depending on which version of Qt you would like to use.

To install the latest development version we recommend the following procedure in a new virtual environment:

pip install "glue-genes[qt6]@git+https://[e-mail]/gluesolutions/glue-genes.git"

Usage

After installation, glue (with the glue genes plug-ins loaded) can be invoked at the terminal: glue
