Tool:New Mac program for molecular biologists
I would like to present here a program – BioLabDonkey – for molecular biologists who are Mac users. This program is written from scratch in a language native for Mac – Swift. The program can be downloaded from mac App Store – apps.apple.com/us/app/biolabdonkey/id1470827582?ls=1&mt=12
It is not free but it is definitely affordable for students. It is one time purchase app, no subscription. New features will be added regularly. The program has a following list of features:
- Opens files (for DNA, protein, alignment) with the extensions: .txt,
.rtf, .fasta, .fas, .fa, .fsa, .ffn, .fna, .seq, .ape, .gb, .gbk,
.ab1, .bldna, .fas, .faa, .seq, .gp, .blprotein, .pdb, .fastq, .aln,
.blalignment, .jpg, .tiff, .png, - Saves files (for DNA, protein, alignment) with the extensions: .txt,
.rtf, .fasta .fas, .fa, .fsa, .ffn, .fna, .seq, .gb, .gbk, .ab1,
.bldna, .fas, .faa, .seq, .gp, .blprotein, .blalignment, .pdf, .eps,
jpg, png - Transcribe, reverse complement and translate DNA sequence
- Find open reading frames (ORFs),
- Find sequence motifs (repeats, palindromes, stem loops and
arbitrary sequences) in DNA sequence, - Generate primers,
- View ABI sequencing chromatogram, edit sequence,
- Generate ORF silent mutations,
- View GC content, CpG islands and Stem Loops,
- Generate Plasmid, Linear map,
- Generate and edit DNA, protein features for genbank, genpept
format files, - Generate features database and perform automatic features
annotation, - Copy/paste the selected DNA sequence with features,
- Find DNA restriction sites and DNA fragments,
- Genome viewer,
- Virtual DNA gel,
- Multiple alignment and realignment of DNA and protein sequences,
- Phylogenetic tree,
- 3D Protein/DNA/RNA viewer,
- Prediction of protein secondary structures,
- Hydropathicity/pI plots,
- Limited proteolysis,
- Find protease sites and protein fragments,
- RNA-Seq DE – Genes and miRNAs differential expression,
- Calculator for – Dilution, Molarity, Ligation, SDS PAG, Ammonium
sulfate, Bacteria growth Nucleic acid OD conversion, - Units conversion for DNA and protein,
- Colonies/Cells/Spots counting,
- Analysis of Gel/Blot photo and calculation of relative fold-change in
selected Gel/Blot bands/spots,
