Molecular Biology Analysis Tools

Data manipulation and calculation
  • Manipulate DNA sequence
  • DNA to protein
  • VGC for data manipulation, protein (pI, translate etc.) & oligo analysis
  • Calculations - of ssDNA/RNA/protein Tm, extinction coefficient and molecular weight. Also in MBCF
  • transeq at EBI - translate DNA sequence to protein. Also have loads of analysis tools
  • Molbio.net
  • protein pI/MW pI prediction and MW calculation, more at Protparam (extinction coeff. etc.). For other protein analysis sites, click here.
