Molecular Biology Tools

NEBcutter

http://nc2.neb.com/NEBcutter2/   This tool will take a DNA sequence and find the large, non-overlapping open reading frames using the E.coli genetic code and the sites for all Type II and commercially available Type III restriction enzymes that cut the sequence just once.

 

Reverse Complement

https://www.bioinformatics.org/sms/rev_comp.html  Reverse Complement converts a DNA sequence into its reverse, complement, or reverse-complement counterpart.

 

Blast

https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?PROGRAM=blastn&PAGE_TYPE=BlastSearch&LINK_LOC=blasthome   A BLAST search allows you to compare a sequence of interest with a database of sequences for homology.  It can be used to align different types of sequences.

 

 

Primerblast

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/tools/primer-blast/   Finding primers specific to your PCR template

 

Ensembl

https://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Info/Index  Information about genes, transcripts, sequences, splicing isoforms, exon sequences, gene coordinates etc.

 

Encode Project

https://www.encodeproject.org/    Encyclopedia of DNA Elements. Experimental data of among other things RNA-protein binding using eCLIP and RNA-seq data

 

 

Geuvadis

https://www.internationalgenome.org/data-portal/data-collection/geuvadis  This collection contains RNA-seq data generated by the Geuvadis consortium. The data includes mRNA and small RNA sequence data for over 460 samples from the 1000 Genomes project, including samples from five of the 1000 Genomes populations (CEU, FIN, GBR, TSI and YRI)

 

dbSNP

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/snp/  database of SNPs

 

Fruitfly

https://www.fruitfly.org/seq_tools/splice.html  Splice site prediction site
