A Python module that translates DNA and RNA nucleotide sequences into the sequences of the encodes set of proteins.

Translating, Transcribing, and Investigating Genetic Sequences and their corresponding Proteins

The Codons module is a lightweight tool for 1) conducting transcription and translation of genetic sequences, either from a FASTA format or a string; 2) making and reading FASTA or multi-FASTA files; and 3) conducting BLAST searches of protein and nucleotide sequences. Example Notebooks of these features are offered in the "examples" directory of the Codons GitHub repository.

Installation

The following command installs Codons in a command prompt/terminal environment:

pip install codons
