The software can be used by any Bioinformatician belonging to beginner or advance category for sequence based analysis of- proteins, DNA, and RNA. SeqBuilder Pro is a product by DNASTAR performs very specific and well-defined tasks for macromolecular sequence analysis. The tool is compatible with Windows and macOS platforms. What is Sequence Analysis for Mac. Sequence Analysis is sequence editing, reverse complement, protein translation, ORF finding, secondary structure, composition, isoelectric point, primer design, pairwise comparison, publish layout and sequence reformatting. Fetches sequence entries directly from the NCBI via Accession number or GID.
View, edit, and convert chromatograms. Trim low quality ends automatically.
Program description
- IVisTMSA is a software package of seven graphical tools for multiple sequence alignments. MSApad is an editing and analysis tool. It can load 409% more data than Jalview, STRAP, CINEMA, and Base.
- The graphical user interface (GUI) is a native Microsoft Windows application that can also be used on Mac OS X. The command line Mega is available as native applications for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. They are intended for use in high-throughput and scripted analysis. Both versions are available from www.megasoftware.net free of charge.
- BioEdit is free and provides many basic functions for protein and nucleic sequence editing, alignment, manipulation and analysis. The software works is no longer maintained. If you only need a trace viewer or want to do basic editing other free software options are better because they have more trimming options and display the quality values.
DNA Chromatogram Explorer Lite is a Windows Explorer clone dedicated to DNA sequence analysis and manipulation. You can view the chromatograms while browsing through folders using its integrated file explorer. With a single click you can trim the low quality bases at the end of your samples.
The Lite version of Chromatogram Explorer is freeware.
How to use it
Exploring your samples
Start DNA Chromatogram Explorer and navigate to your DNA sample files (chromatograms).
All chromatograms in that folder will be displayed in the right panel (see picture below). SCF and ABI (ABI, AB, AB1, AB!) chromatogram files are supported. Low quality ends are shown in dark gray color. To view non-chromatogram files (FASTA, SEQ, TXT) just double click them.
Converting your samples
Press 'Convert' or 'Convert all' and your file will be saved as SCF or FASTA (as you choose).
Automatic end trimming
With DNA Chromatogram Explorer you can automatically trim low quality ends of all chromatograms in a folder. Please see this short tutorial.
