The Lazy Scientist

The Lazy Scientist is a translation tool aimed to assist synthetic biologist. The app is available for free download on both iPhone and Android.The app has five functions to help with DNA sequence analysis.

DNA to Amino Acids

Enter a DNA codon or a sequence of DNA codons and The Lazy Scientist will return the Amino Acid associated with that DNA codon. - i.e Entering GTC would return (Val/V)Valine or just V if you want a short translate.

Back Translate Enter a single Amino Acid letter or a sequence of Amino Acid letters and The Lazy Scientist will return the preferred DNA codon for Ecoli. - i.e Entering F would return UUU.

Reverse Enter a DNA sequence and The Lazy Scientist will return the reverse of the DNA sequence. - i.e Entering GATC would return CTAG.

Complement Enter a DNA sequence and The Lazy Scientist will return the complement of the DNA sequence. - i.e Entering CGTA would return GCAT.

Reverse Complement Enter a DNA sequence and The Lazy Scientist will return the reversed complement of the DNA sequence. - i.e Entering GCTA would return TAGC.

Genetic Codon Table The function allows you to lookup an amino acid and it will display all of the corresponding genetic codons. The list of amino acids are in alphabetic order.
