The data of PhyloProfile Corona is displayed for an interactive exploration of the feature-aware phylogenetic profile of isolates from the Coronaviridae family. This is a lite version of PhyloProfile, which is pre-configured only for its use with the Coronavirus data.
Feature-aware phylogenetic profile of the SARS-CoV-2 protein set (GCF_009858895.2) across the Coronaviridae family.
- Taxa (x-axis) are ordered with increasing evolutionary distance to SARS-CoV-2. The dataset covers samples in the respective order from betacoronaviruses (Sarbecovirus, Hibecovirus, Nobecovirus, Merbecovirus, and Embecovirus), alpha-, gamma-, and deltacoronaviruses.
- Rows indicate the reference protein set of SARS-CoV-2, which comprises core proteins, accessory proteins, and polyprotein components. Abbreviations: M – membrane glycoprotein, N – nucleocapsid protein, S – spike glycoprotein, E – envelope protein, ORF - open reading frame, NSP - non-structural protein.
- Dots indicate orthologs of each protein in the respective isolate. To inspect the domain architecture comparison between the protein in SARS-CoV-2 and the one from the datapoint, click on the dot, select detailed plot, select the ortholog from the barplot, and click on show domain architecture.
- The color scheme represents the similarity of annotated features between SARS-CoV-2 proteins and the respective orthologs using the FAS scores (Koestler, et al. 2010) by assigning values between 0 and 1. The score is penalized for missing features (FAS_F; dot color) and added features (FAS_B; background color) in the orthologous protein. For instance, a protein with an identical feature architecture to the reference protein in SARS-CoV-2 would have FAS_F = 1 and FAS_B = 1, and would appear as a blue dot in a light-grey background according to the color scale.
