SeqMan Ultra
SeqMan Ultra is the new face of SeqMan Pro, our longstanding sequence assembly software application, complete with a new modern, intuitive interface, as well as lots of performance improvements under the hood. SeqMan Ultra uses the most accurate contig assembly algorithm for Sanger sequence assemblies, and provides extensive post-assembly analysis tools for both Sanger and NGS assemblies. When compared to the competition, our algorithm does the best job assembling Sanger sequences into a single contig, and calling the most accurate consensus sequence based on trace quality and shape. Following assembly, SeqMan Ultra uniquely offers you the ability to easily edit your assembled data – exposing or trimming ends, introducing mutations – as well as analyzing your assembled data, including viewing chromatograms, evaluating coverage, analyzing variants, and examining multiple samples organized within a single contig.

SeqMan NGen and SeqMan Ultra are two applications that work together to assemble and analyze both Sanger and NGS sequencing data. SeqMan NGen is the application that assembles and aligns the data, and is fully integrated in SeqMan Ultra so that you can go from streamlined project setup to finished assembly all in one application. SeqMan Ultra is one of the sequence assembly tools that allows you to analyze and edit the assembly produced by SeqMan NGen. (Additional applications within Lasergene Genomics are available for analyzing NGS projects and more complex Sanger assemblies).
SeqMan Ultra is the new face of SeqMan Pro, our longstanding contig assembly software application, complete with a new modern, intuitive interface, as well as lots of performance improvements under the hood. SeqMan Ultra is a 64-bit application, which means when compared to the 32-bit SeqMan Pro application, it offers faster project opening, better performance for analyzing large files, increased capacity, and compatibility with macOS 10.15. SeqMan Pro will still be available in Lasergene 17, but will eventually be completely replaced by SeqMan Ultra.
Which Lasergene package includes SeqMan Ultra?
SeqMan Ultra is included with Lasergene Molecular Biology, Lasergene Genomics, and the complete DNASTAR Lasergene package.
With a Lasergene Molecular Biology license, SeqMan Ultra is available for Sanger sequence assemblies only.
With a Lasergene Genomics or DNASTAR Lasergene license, SeqMan Ultra is available for all NGS assemblies as well as Sanger sequence assemblies.
Can I search NCBI databases online? Can I search local databases?
GenVision Pro, Protean 3D, SeqMan Ultra, SeqBuilder Pro, and MegAlign Pro all offer the ability to do online sequence similarity searches in NCBI BLAST and text similarity searches in NCBI Entrez.
In addition, all but SeqBuilder Pro offer the ability to create and search local databases. First, use the Local Database Manager to upload local files and/or import sequences from NCBI, with over 30 databases to choose from. The manager can also be used to merge, expand, rename, and/or delete local databases. Local searches can then be done without Internet access and are a great way to ensure data security. In addition, local searches are 5–25x faster than online searches.
Can I edit my assembled sequences in SeqMan Ultra?
Yes. An assembly run in SeqMan Ultra or SeqMan NGen produces a fully editable project which can be edited at base-level and contig-level in SeqMan Ultra.
