[Genome] conservation tracks for peptide sequences

[Brooke Rhead]

Hello Rich,

Unfortunately, we do not have multiple alignment files of peptide sequences.

However (if you haven't done this already), you may be interested in 
viewing the conservation track in the Genome Browser and turning on the 
codon translation feature.  Do this by going to the track controls page, 
either by clicking the track name link right above its drop-down box, or 
by clicking the mini-button to the left of the track -- the tall blue or 
gray box on the far left-hand side of the display, and then scroll down 
to the "Codon Translation" section.

The "color track by codons" feature is also available on several 
alignment tracks, such as Other RefSeq, Other mRNA and Other EST, which 
you may also be interested in viewing.

Please let us know if you have any further questions.
