Translation/Reverse Translation

Programs

Translating DNA to protein

  • GCG Programs
    • Translate: Translates a nucleic acid sequence to a protein sequence file
  • EMBOSS Programs
    • transeq: Translates a nucleic acid sequence to a protein sequence file

Reverse translating protein to DNA

  • GCG Programs
    • RevTrans: Reverse translates a protein sequence to a nucleic acid sequence file
  • EMBOSS Programs
    • backtranseq: Reverse translates a protein sequence to a nucleic acid sequence file
