Vector NTI, a balanced all-in-one sequence analysis suite
نویسندگان
چکیده
Vector NTI is a well-balanced desktop application integrated for molecular sequence analysis and biological data management. It has a centralised database and five application modules: Vector NTI, AlignX, BioAnnotator, ContigExpress and GenomBench. In this review, the features and functions available in this software are examined. These include database management, primer design, virtual cloning, alignments, sequence assembly, 3D molecular viewer and internet tools. Some problems encountered when using this software are also discussed. It is hoped that this review will introduce this software to more molecular biologists so they can make better-informed decisions when choosing computational tools to facilitate their everyday laboratory work. This tool can save time and enhance analysis but it requires some learning on the user's part and there are some issues that need to be addressed by the developer.

Study on Genetic Diversity of Terminal Fragment Sequence of Isolated Persian Tobacco Mosaic Virus
Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is one of the devastating plant viruses in the world that infects more than 200 plant species. Movement protein plays a supportive role in the movement of other plant viruses, and viral coat protein is highly expressed in infected plants and affects replication and movements of TMV. In order to investigate genetic variation in the terminal fragment sequence in Iranian...
متن کاملdesign and evaluation PCR primer for type 1 tyrosinemia patient from yasuj
Tyrosinemia is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase deficiency. 40 different mutation have been recognized related to Tyrosinemia that could be found in all extend of the gene with higher frequency from exon 8 to 14. Because of the size of FAH gene it's impossible to Sequence whole length of the gene by one round of sequencing reaction. Aim of this ...
متن کاملConstruction of an Expression Vector Containing a Novel Fusion Sequence from Middle Region of NS3 and Truncated Core Genes of Hepatitis C Virus
Background and Aims: DNA constructs containing HCV antigens have become one of the vaccine candidates for induction of anti-HCV cellular and humoral immunity. In this study, we constructed a novel expressing vector harboring a fusion sequence derived from an overlapping fragment in the middle of NS3 and a truncated core fragment to avoid troubles reported to be associated with full gene express...
متن کاملA Single Point Mutation within the Coding Sequence of Cholera Toxin B Subunit Will Increase Its Expression Yield
Background: Cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) has been extensively considered as an immunogenic and adjuvant protein, but its yield of expression is not satisfactory in many studies. The aim of this study was to compare the expression of native and mutant recombinant CTB (rCTB) in pQE vector. Methods: ctxB fragment from Vibrio cholerae O1 ATCC14035 containing the substitution of mutant ctxB for ami...

Objectives Natural humoral immune response and autoimmune mechanisms have great importance in keeping the balance of tumorimmunity, although it has not yet been fully understood. We aimed to reveal potential antitumor immune response by immunoglobulin (Ig) profile analysis of patients with metastatic melanomas. Methods A complex panel assay has been performed at expressed DNA and protein levels...
