Features

Some of the assembly core features are:

Automatic sequence assembly from ABI, SCF, FASTA and SEQ files with only 3 clicks.

Batch assembly. Thousand of contigs can be assembled at once

Assemble to reference

Automatic cleaning (trimming) of the bad ends of chromatograms. Details

Synchronized display between chromatograms and contig, which makes the correction of ambiguous bases much faster and easier.

Proprietary algorithm for correction of the ambiguous bases.

A rapid navigation between mismatches. With just one click you can jump to the next mismatch.

Chromatogram viewer and editor (ABI and SCF).

Project map

Easy to use interface: the user can make a contig with only 3 mouse clicks.

Automatically save the contig to disk.

Automatic primer detection and vector removal.

Fast assembly algorithm

Top accuracy - DNA Baser Assembler is not using a "partial solution" algorithm like other programs. The precision of ambiguity correction recorded during testing was better than 96%. The user must only have to confirm program's suggestions instead of editing the contig.

DNA Sequence Dereplicator

Embedded biology tools:

Batch sequence processing (batch ends trimming, vector removal, metadata integration, FASTA conversion...)

Batch metadata integration tool (RNA Baser only)

Clone library dereplicator

Batch FASTA to multi-FASTA converter

Batch multi-FASTA to FASTA converter

GenBank to FASTA converter

Reverse complement

One click conversion between several file formats

Other features:

BEST price on the market and significant discount when several licenses are ordered. Please see the Prices page for more details

Intelligent, ergonomic, easy to use interface. Just drag and drop your files, then press the 'Start' button and the contig is done. Details.

Low resource requirement: it can run even on very old systems. Incredibly small size: The size of the whole package is about 2MB.

100% safe. DNA Baser will never alter your chromatogram files (results are saved in separate files) and it will never alter your system. Details.

Auto updating. The program automatically checks and download the updates from the Internet. Updates are free.

Supported file types

AB, AB1, ABI
SCF
SEQ
TXT
FASTA

System requirements

• Intel Pentium II or AMD K6 machine (0.4 GHz) with 0.1 GB RAM
  
• Windows NT or higher
  
• Only 3MB free hard disk space
• Any video card and monitor (resolution of minimum 1024x768 is recommended)

The program requires few MB or RAM when assembling samples in small contigs. However, if you assemble larger contigs (over 10000 bases) it will need more RAM. Therefore, for large contigs we recommend at least 1GB or RAM.
