In this article, we are going to learn how python can be useful in finding amino acid in a given protein sequence. Before reading this article you must know about FASTA format and single letter code for the amino acid. (Click here FASTA format) Here, we will learn how can we find the total length […]

How to find out the complementary strand of DNA using Python
What is a complementary strand? DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is made up of pentose Sugar, nitrogenous bases, and phosphate. DNA has a backbone of sugar and phosphate. As we all know DNA is a double helical structure (Watson & crick model) and both the strand of DNA are complementary of each other. So, what does it […]
Amino Acid
The amino acid is an organic compound (Biomolecule). An amino acid contains a carboxyl group (-COOH) and an amino group (-NH2). Amino Acids are the building blocks of protein. There are 22 standard amino acids. Amino Acids are different from each other because of the attached R- group to the alpha carbon. Amino Acids form […]
