Investigating a transcript (splice variant)
The transcript tab allows exploration of one splice variant, such as BRCA2-201 (Figure 15). You can get to the transcript tab by searching for the transcript name, by clicking on a transcript in the transcript table in the gene tab, or by clicking on a transcript in one of the graphical displays.

We will use the menu on the left to explore:
- Exon and cDNA sequence
- Protein domains
