file extension FA - FASTA Format DNA and protein sequence alignment
File extension FA description:
File does not contains the chromatogram but only the sequence string (it is much more simple format).
The FASTA programs find regions of local or global (new) similarity between Protein or DNA sequences, either by searching Protein or DNA databases, or by identifying local duplications within a sequence. Other programs provide information on the statistical significance of an alignment. Like BLAST, FASTA can be used to infer functional and evolutionary relationships between sequences as well as help identify members of gene families.

DNA Baser
is an easy to use software package providing DNA sequence assembly functions (simple and batch), contig editing functions and chromatogram viewer/editor.
It provides automated end trimming (clipping), so there is no need to trim manually the low quality bases from the ends of the trace files before contig assembly. This saves considerable time, especially when assembling many DNA sequences.
DNA Baser offers a smart navigation system that takes you to the location of each sequence ambiguity / mutation with only a single click.
Features:
- Automatic cleaning (trimming) of the bad ends of chromatograms, based on the Quality Values (QV).
- Synchronized display between chromatograms and contig.
- Proprietary algorithm for correction of the ambiguous bases.
- A rapid navigation between mismatches.
- Chromatogram viewer and editor (ABI and SCF).
- Project map.
- Automatically save the contig to disk.
- Automatic primer detection and vector removal.
- Fast assembly algorithm.
- Conversion between several file formats.
- Embedded reverse complement tool.
