Summary: We introduce visualization and comparison of consensus sequences (VisCoSe) as a WWW service and a stand-alone command line Perl script for visualizing and comparing consensus sequences of protein and nucleotide sequences. VisCoSe is the only interface available that simultaneously calculates consensus sequences of multiple data sets and automatically compares these consensus sequences. Furthermore, VisCoSe allows visualization of chemical properties of amino acids.
