== Features == DNADynamo is a general purpose DNA and Protein sequence analysis package that can carry out most of the functions required by a standard research molecular biology laboratory
* DNA and Protein Sequence viewing, editing and annotating * Contig assembly and chromatogram editing including comparison to a reference sequence to identify mutations * Global Sequence alignment with ClustalW and MUSCLE and editing. * Select and drag Sequence alignment editing for hand made dna vs protein alignments * Restriction site analysis - for viewing restriction cut sites in tables and on linear and circular maps. * A Subcloning tool for the assembly of constructs using Restriction Sites or Gibson assembly, * Agarose Gel simulation. * Online Database searching - Search public databases at the NCBI such as Genbank and UniProt. * Online BLAST searches. * Protein analysis including estimation of Molecular Weight, Extinction Coefficient and pI. * PCR Primer design, including an interface to Primer3 * 3D structure viewing via an interface to Jmol
