Synthetic Gene DataBase

Sequence Comparison Tool

This tool compares the codon usage of a synthetic gene with its natural counterpart in the SGDB.

Step 1: Specify the sequences you want to compare:

1b. Otherwise, enter the gene name AND
Paste the nucleotide sequence of the synthetic gene below

Paste the nucleotide sequence of the natural gene below Paste the sequence of the natural gene here.

Step 2: Specify the genetic code:

Step 3: Specify the codon preferences:
3a. From a codon preference table on our server

3b. From a codon preference table saved from the CAI Calculator.
3c. A customized codon preference table (GCG format). Codons are weighted by "Fraction" (see an example input below). AmAcid Codon Number /1000 Fraction ..
