Two software applications are available from Technelysium: Chromas and ChromasPro.








Minimal set of functions in the free version. It is designed more as a "lab journal", and is totally inconvenient for things like DNA sequence storage/editing/design, even though some functions for that are included






RasMol is a computer program written for molecular graphics visualization intended and used primarily for the depiction and exploration of biological macromolecule structures, such as those found in the Protein Data Bank.


Scientific software for the molecular biologist. Performs virtual DNA cloning, analyses DNA for restriction enzymes, homing enzymes and primer sites, dam and dcm methylation sites, finds and translates open reading frames. Calculates annealing temperatures for PCR.




A full featured multiple sequence alignment editor, analyser and shading utility for Windows.

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.


The free version does not offer any of the features one would find in vectorNTI
