The DNASTAR Lasergene package is the most robust of our software offerings, and includes all of the applications from our genomics, structural biology, molecular biology, and cloning suites.
Clustal Omega is a multiple sequence alignment program. It produces biologically meaningful multiple sequence alignments of divergent sequences. Evolutionary relationships can be seen via viewing Cladograms or Phylograms.
Mendelgen is an online DNA vector editing and manipulation tool. It offers features like MSA alignment, codon optimization, feature detection, and more. It's wrapped in a beautiful and intuitive design to make your experience easy and enjoyable.



QIAGEN CLC Main Workbench is ideal for DNA, RNA, & protein sequence data analysis with a wide variety of features, no advanced computer skills required! The workbench is available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux platforms.

PlasmaDNA is a free DNA analysis and manipulation software. It is simple to learn and to use, and contains multiple features designed to help with:
DNAssist provides an intuitive, single interface within which sequence files are displayed, edited and analyzed. The user can customize the display in editor windows by selecting the font, font size, and line length.

VectorFriends combines various types of cloning simulations, sequence analysis and data management into one application.

Use SimVector to draw plasmid maps, perform restriction analysis and mapping. The plasmid drawing software also simulates cloning experiments such as gateway cloning, ta cloning and restriction cloning



XPlasMap is a DNA mapping program.
It draws plasmid or linear DNA maps, showing features such as genes, multiple cloning sites, and restriction sites. The maps are highly customizable: colors, styles, position, and overall appearance of features can be changed. Fragments can be.
