DNA Translator
Paste a DNA sequence and read it the way a cell does. Each codon lines up under its coding strand, template strand and mRNA, and the protein appears as a chain of amino acids coloured by chemical family.
What you can do
- Enter the coding strand or the template strand, or paste RNA or a FASTA record
- Finds the first AUG, reads to the first stop codon and greys out what is not translated
- Highlights the codons used on a full codon chart
- Compares reading frames by their longest open frame
- Adds a point mutation, insertion or deletion and names the effect, with the sickle-cell mutation as an example
