=== Input Format === LOLA accepts the BRAIN peptide file format. A peptide file describes a protein containing a specific domain, and provides known peptide ligands of this domain obtained by an experimental technique. |
=== Changing memory allocations on Windows, Mac, and Linux machines === |
Line 31: | Line 56: |
The peptide file consists of a '''Header Section''' that describes the protein and domain sequence, and a '''Peptide Section''' that lists and describes the peptide ligands. | There are a number of ways to change LOLA's memory allocation, depending on your preferred method of opening the application. |

'''Values in this column must be unique.''' '''Peptide:*''' The peptide ligand sequence. '''CloneFrequency:''' Applies only to phage display data: the observed frequency of the peptide in the cloning step. '''QuantData:''' A number that relatively or absolutely quantifies the protein-ligand interaction. E.g. The optical density (OD) from a protein chip experiment. '''ExternalIdentifier:''' A database identifier for the peptide. === Opening Multiple Peptide Files === To open several peptide files at once, simply link them all in a single '''project file'''. A project file is a text file containing the absolute paths of multiple peptide files. Opening the project file in LOLA will opening each of these peptide files in a single step.

LOLA (LOgos Look Amazing) is a tool for generating sequence logos using Position Weight Matrix based protein profiles. LOLA allows you to generate custom sequence logos by setting parameters such as logo height, trim percentage, and residue colour scheme. You can then save logos in various formats including PDF, PNG, and JPEG.
LOLA is currently in beta-testing. Version 1.2-beta is now available for download.

Installing and Running
Requirements: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.5 or later is required to run LOLA. All other dependencies are included in the download.
- Extract the TAR file. This will create a directory named "lola".
- On Linux, open the command shell and run "lola.sh" from the "lola" directory.
- On Windows, double click "lola.bat".
- On Mac, double click lola-1.0-beta.jar
LOLA accepts one or more [wiki:Self:../BRAIN/PeptideFile peptide file] as shown in the example below. A peptide file describes a protein containing a specific domain, and provides known peptide ligands of this domain obtained by an experimental technique. You can open a single peptide file, or multiple peptide files grouped into a [wiki:Self:../BRAIN/PeptideFile#ProjectFiles project file].

Changing memory allocations on Windows, Mac, and Linux machines
There are a number of ways to change LOLA's memory allocation, depending on your preferred method of opening the application.
Option A: Command line startup (note: this does not permanently change LOLA's default 512M setting)
If you are opening LOLA from the command-line using the command:
- java –Xmx512M –jar lola-VERSION.jar
then you can increase the value of –Xmx to the desired amount of memory. For example:
- java –Xmx800M –jar lola-VERSION.jar
Option B: Using lola.bat (Windows systems)
- Open the file lola.bat in a text editor (eg. right-click and select Open With Notepad).
- Increase the value of the –Xmx tag (found in the last line of the file), as per Option A. Do not modify other parts of the file.
- Save and close the file.
- Open LOLA by double-clicking on lola.bat.
Option C: Using lola.sh (UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X systems)
Open the file lola.sh in a text editor (eg. right-click and select Open With TextEdit).
- Increase the value of the –Xmx tag (found in the last line of the file), as per Option A. Do not modify other parts of the file.
- Save and close the file.
- Open LOLA by running lola.sh from the command-line.
Future Developments
- Enable logo and logo tree parameters to be saved in a project file for later use
- Support customized amino acid grouping schemes
- Allow colours to be selected for individual amino-acids
- Add support for nucleic acids
- Additional visualization options (e.g. font, axis labels)
