DNADynamo is a commercial DNA sequence analysis software package produced by Blue Tractor Software Ltd [1] that runs on Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux [2] It is used by molecular biologists [3] to analyze DNA and Protein sequences. A free demo is available from the software developers website.

Eigenschaften

DNADynamo is a general purpose DNA and Protein sequence analysis package that can carry out most of the functions required by a standard research molecular biology laboratory

  • DNA and Protein Sequence viewing, editing and annotating
  • Contig assembly and chromatogram editing including comparison to a reference sequence to identify mutations
  • Global Sequence alignment with ClustalW and MUSCLE and editing.
