Analyze data from molecular biology projects. Define your preferred enzyme suppliers and configure the recognition and visualization parameters for the content of files in common formats. Copy, transfer, export, and share the materials for joining research projects.
SnapGene Viewer is a versatile tool for creating and sharing richly annotated sequence files. It opens many common file formats.
Free! Because there should be no barriers to seeing your data.
v1.3
- You can now import all DNA sequences from a Vector NTI database using a new "File -> Import Vector NTI Database…" command.
- You can now import primers from a Vector NTI database or .oa4 oligo archive using a new "Primers -> Import Primers from Vector NTI…" command.
- You can now customize the sequence map label using a new "View -> Edit Map Label..." command.
- SnapGene now supports the "Pterobranchia Mitochondrial" genetic code.
- Added % GC to the selection bar for selections Added support for Bioline ladders.
- Added support for Eurogentec's "SmartLadder" and "SmartLadder SF" ladders. (Suggested by Virgile Adam)Enhancements:
- When BLASTing multiple selected primers, SnapGene now performs the search within a single browser tab instead of spawning multiple tabs. (Suggested by Edward Wallace)
- Added support for the GenBank mobile_element feature type and mobile_element_type qualifier. Also enhanced the way this and similar (e.g. /db_xref) qualifier values are displayed in Features view.
- SnapGene now supports opening multiple documents at once on Windows when they are dropped on the SnapGene icon.
- SnapGene now decodes sequence names from .cm5 Clone Manager sequence files and .ma4 Vector NTI molecular archives.
- Alphabetized the insert codon pull down menu in the Add/Edit/Duplicate Primer dialogs. Removed the Asx and Glx entries and fixed the DNA associated with Xaa.
- By default the launch dialog will no longer reappear on Mac OS X.
- Updated the common features database to over 336 unique standard common features.
- Moved "Aligned with Sequence Traces..." from the View menu to the Actions menu.
- Added "Cell Biolabs" to the list of companies in the Description Panel.
- Various textual enhancementsBug Fixes:
- Fixed a bug that resulted in a crash when opening some GenBank files (Reported by Tatiana Garachtchenko)
- Fixed a bug where SnapGene on Windows was unable to open files whose filename or directory contain multi-byte non-latin characters. (Reported by Heng Fan)
- Fixed a bug with exporting maps to various formats (JPEG, TIFF) on Windows. (Reported by Millie)
- Fixed a bug where only the first match was ever reported when searching for features or primers in Map and Sequence Views.
- Fixed a bug with cycling between enzyme and primer matches in Map and Sequence Views.
- Fixed a bug with circularizing sequences that were previously linearized at the numerical origin.
- Fixed a bug where the sample file asked if it should be updated when closing.
- Fixed a bug where if opening a file failed the application could appear to hang on Windows.
- Fixed a bug where non-native circular sequences were loaded as linear in manipulation dialogs.
- Fixed a bug displaying the name for the common feature "T7 Φ3.8 promoter" or any name containing a period in it's name while using the common features dialog.
- Fixed a various bugs that could result in a crash when identifying primer binding sites.
- SnapGene now requires a non-empty selection before adding a feature.
- Fixed a bug where duplicate copies of features could be detected when importing features from another file if the other file contains copies of a given feature in both orientations.
