About this Class

Link to recording: https://web.microsoftstream.com/video/78e8e458-f5c7-4aa4-b5ea-9cd94b20452a Helen Shearman, PhD, Senior Field Application Scientist, will be presenting a one-hour overview demonstration on SnapGene. SnapGene offers a fast and easy way to plan, visualize, and document your everyday cloning procedures. It makes cloning easier, improves communication, and provides a record of DNA constructs. Helen will be demonstrating how to create plasmid maps, perform cloning, design primers and simulate PCR, and produce alignments. SnapGene Features:
  • Molecular Cloning - restriction cloning and more
  • Primer Design
  • PCR and Mutagenesis - simulate PCR...
  • Enzyme Sets -  by company or cutter, detailed enzyme information
  • Convert File Formats - GenBank, Lasergene, Geneious
  • Agarose Gel Simulation - restriction digests and PCR amplification
  • Features/ Annotations - common features, alternate codons
  • Translations - ORFs, proteins and more
  • Alignment - DNA sequences with a reference sequence
  • Visualizing - Multiple views of a DNA sequence
