Calculators & Analysis

Welcome to Science Codons Sequence Manipulation Suite (v5.0), the modern hub for biological data analysis. Unlike traditional desktop software that requires complex installation and updates, our suite offers a lightweight, browser-based alternative powered by robust engines like Biopython and Open Babel.
Whether you are a student needing a quick Reverse Complement or a bioinformatician converting complex PDB to FASTA files, we have streamlined the workflow. Our Universal Converters handle over 20 biological formats (including GenBank, EMBL, NEXUS, and PHYLIP), eliminating the need to switch between multiple websites.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a file size limit for uploads?
Yes, currently we support files up to 100MB to ensure optimal performance for all users. However, we are constantly working to upgrade our servers. Your donations directly help us increase this limit and handle larger datasets for the community.
Is my data saved on your servers?
Absolutely not. We do not store your data. Simple tools run entirely in your browser (client-side), while complex converters process files on our secure servers. In all cases, your files are automatically deleted immediately after processing.
Are these tools free to use?
Yes! Our mission is to keep these bioinformatics tools free forever. Since we do not have corporate sponsors, we rely entirely on community support. If you find our tools useful, please consider supporting us to keep the project alive.
Can I use this on my phone or tablet?
Yes, the entire suite is fully responsive and mobile-friendly. You can analyze sequences and view structures seamlessly on any device, from desktop workstations to smartphones.
How do I report a bug or suggest a feature?
We appreciate your feedback! If you encounter any issues, please report them via our Contact Page.
