Hello again,

Is it possible to reverse complement nucleotide sequences? If not, this,
along with the toggle translation option mentioned in my last post, would
be very helpful. Also, please let me know if this is not the best forum
for making such requests.

Thanks,

John

nope - a basic facility would be quite easy to implement - although I'd ideally also like some kind of mapping to be preserved between the original sequence and the complement. This would be in the same way that translated dna sequences retain a mapping between them and their protein products - a feature which is being introduced in Jalview 2.4.

this is the right forum - but I'm not sure if you've posted before (although I did recover your email from a few years ago!).

thanks for the feature request.

Good morning
I generally do the reverse and complements on ChromasPro which has a free version and a very modestly priced version (about $150). It is also very good for checking the chromatograms of several aligned files
