Nucleotide Sequence Analysis

Calculate and interactively explore sequence statistics; calculate sequence properties; analyze motifs; design primers; find restriction enzymes

Perform in-depth analyses of nucleotide sequences to get better understanding of sequence features and functions. You can compute sequence statistics, such as codon frequency and density of nucleotides, and interactively explore the sequences in the Sequence Viewer app. Calculate complementary strands and sequence properties of DNA oligonucleotides. Use various sequence utility functions to convert DNA to RNA sequences and vice versa, find nucleotide codes, and calculate consensus sequences.
