ApE, created and maintained by Wayne Davis from the University of Utah, is an free, basic sequence editor.
Features
OS, data format
- runs on Windows, OS X, and Linux/Unix
- imports DNA Strider, Fasta, Genbank, EMBL and ABI sequence traces
- saves data in a modified Genbank file format (DNA Strider-compatible)
- exports BankIt feature table for sequence submission to NCBI GenBank
- export graphic files of sequence diagrams
Sequence markup and tools
- pre-existing expandable feature tables which can be used for automatic annotation
- sequence search, e.g. for primers, probes, or restriction sites
- restriction sites and region markup in sequence and in a simple cartoon
- shows translation, Tm, %GC, ORF of selected DNA
- BLAST selected sequence at NCBI or wormbase
- virtual digest including gel diagram
