Sequence logo

In bioinformatics, a sequence logo is a graphical representation of the sequence conservation of nucleotides (in a strand of DNA/RNA) or amino acids (in protein sequences).A sequence logo is created from a collection of aligned sequences and depicts the consensus sequence and diversity of the sequences.Sequence logos are frequently used to depict sequence characteristics such as protein-binding sites in DNA or functional units in proteins.
