Increasing data points to the importance of the three-dimensional structure of chromosomes, for example groups of co-expressed genes are believed to occur in close proximity due to the physical winding of the chromosomes, even though they may appear distant within the one-dimensional string of nucleotide residues. Recent experimental techniques, such as Hi-C and ChIA-PET, provide large amounts of genome-wide distance constraint connection information for the biologist to comprehend. We present Rondo, an interactive web tool for chromosome structure visualisation. Rondo uses a SQL database to pre-calculate clusters of connections at multiple resolutions to provide a responsive user experience.
