About eBioX
eBioX brings easy-to-use sequence analysis to Mac-using biologists. It features an editor for sequences and multiple alignments, and graphical viewers for trace files and molecule structures. Many popular file formats are supported. Databases can be created locally or queried over the network, both for metadata and homology (BLAST). Analysis functions include searching for patterns, primers, restriction sites and repeats, translation and back translation, calculating DNA melting temperature, dot plots, as well as aligning sequences (multiple, local and global). Multiple alignments can be created by several of the most popular algorithms
eBioX takes advantage of the Unix underpinnings of Mac OS X by using command line sequence analysis tools from the eBioTools package, but presents them to the user with a friendly interface.
Requirements
- Mac OS X version 10.4 (Tiger) or 10.5 (Leopard)
