The Predictions tab displays all prediction data retrieved from the MEGA-MDW server in a list view. Complete information for the currently active record is displayed in the Mutation Detail View. Columns of data are banded together into categories:
Mutations identifiers as well as mutant and reference alleles are given here. Note mutant amino acids that are appended with an asterisk (*) have multiple rows returned by the MEGA-MD server, each row indicating a mutation at the nucleotide level (look to the Coordinate Info band to see nucleotide change).
Predictions consensus, EvoD, PolyPhen-2, and SIFT predictions are given here. Where both the original and balanced predictions are given for PolyPhen-2 and SIFT (balanced predictions are described in Liu and Kumar 2013).
Impact the impact scores for EvoD, PolyPhen-2, and SIFT predictions are provided along with the Grantham distance and Blosum62 value.
Evolutionary Features (hidden by default) substitution rate, position time span, and mutation time span are displayed (see below for a description of how to display this band).
Coordinate Info (hidden by default) additional coordinate information is shown here, including chromosome, strand, nucleotide position, amino acid position, wild nucleotide, and mutant nucleotide (see below for a description of how to display this band).
To toggle on/off the display of a given band, click on the indicator button which is located to the far left in the band headers row. A popup menu will appear from which bands can be selected/deselected. Often times when changing the display of bands, column widths will change in undesirable ways. To remedy this, you can execute the Best-fit Columns action by clicking Format->Resize columns to best-fit or clicking the toolbar button. Alternatively, columns widths can be adjusted by dragging their header edges.
The toolbar and main menu provide access to several actions for importing/exporting data, formatting the view, sorting, text search, and setting view options.
