This option is available for nucleotide sequences only. It specifies to show the annotation on the corresponding amino sequence instead of the original nucleotide sequence in the Sequence Detailed View, for example:

<center>
     <br>
     <img src="/wiki/download/attachments/4227356/Show on Translation.png"/>
     <br>
</center>

You can enable/disable this option by checking/unchecking the Show on translation checkbox.
