DNA Rainbow

Cool link for the day http://www.dna-rainbow.org/ They take human chromosomes, assign colors to the nucleotides, and draw pictures. The pictures mostly looks like static, but if you look closely, you can see shifting color patterns that indicate overall nucleotide frequency changes. It would be interesting do see those pictures with predicted genes highlighted. That way, we could see if the different color bands correspond with gene dense regions.
