Would you like to move beyond hand-drawn plasmid maps?

SnapGene Viewer is revolutionary software that allows molecular biologists to create, browse, and share richly annotated DNA sequence files up to 1 Gb in length.

Visualize

• Create a DNA sequence file by either entering a sequence, or importing a record from GenBank, or opening an annotated sequence stored in one of many common file formats.
• Browse or print a DNA sequence and its annotations using customizable Map, Sequence, Enzymes, Features, Primers, and History views.
• Search a DNA sequence to match either a DNA query, or a protein translation, or an annotation.
• View and edit DNA sequence traces.

Annotate

• Automatically annotate common features, or manually annotate coding sequences and other features.
• Design and annotate primers for PCR, sequencing, or mutagenesis.
• Identify open reading frames (ORFs) with a single mouse click.

Share

• Export a plasmid map as an image, or export an annotated DNA sequence to GenBank format.
• Freely share data with your colleagues or customers using the universally accessible SnapGene format.
