To specify whether a sequence is linear or circular | Choose Sequence > Linear or Sequence > Circular. Regardless of the selection made here, SeqBuilder Pro can display any sequence in both the Linear and Circular views. Specifying Circular impacts ORFs and restriction sites that cross the origin. |
To specify whether the sequence contains DNA or RNA | Choose Sequence > DNA or Sequence > RNA. If RNA is chosen, the sequence is displayed with U’s instead of T’s. |
