🔨 Installation

~~You can install ggmsa from CRAN using install.packages('ggmsa'). ~~

Alternatively you can grab the development version from github using devtools:

if (!requireNamespace("devtools", quietly=TRUE))
    install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("YuLab-SMU/ggmsa")

💡 Quick Example

library(ggmsa)
protein_sequences <- system.file("extdata", "sample.fasta", package = "ggmsa")
ggmsa(protein_sequences, start = 221, end = 280, char_width = 0.5, seq_name = T) + geom_seqlogo() + geom_msaBar()
