Nucleic Acid Sequence tools
This small library contains types and functions used for performing operations on DNA sequences. Its most fundamental type is the Nucleotide
enum, representing a single DNA nucleotide. This library is general, and intended to be used by any program or library that uses DNA sequences.
It includes functions to convert between &[Nucleotide]
to string and vice-versa, and convert to and from u8 integer representations. It includes functions to serialize and deserialize in a compact binary format, with 2 bits per nucleotide.
See the docs for details on data structures and functions available.
Utility functionality
- Sequence and nucleotide complements
- Sequence and nucleotide weight
- GC content
We may add alignment, sequence searches, and other utility features in the future.
Also includes restriction enzyme functionality basics.
This library is used by the PlasCAD plasmid editor.
