Hi all,

I am currently trying to visualize gene fusions on IGV, using mapped RNA BAM files. However, I am only able to view the short "fused" reads for each gene fusion (see attached image). Is there a way to visualize the ends, breakpoints or even the separate genes on IGV?

Hi,

IGV's multi-locus view allows you to view multiple genomic regions side by side.

See the documentation here: https://software.broadinstitute.org/software/igv/multilocus_view
