Open tool →
KASP / ARMS Primer Designer

Design KASP/ARMS SNP-genotyping primers — two allele-specific forward primers with FAM/HEX tails and an engineered ARMS secondary mismatch, plus a common reverse primer.

Open tool →
Gel Troubleshooter

Diagnose gel problems (no bands, smearing, wrong size, primer-dimer, degradation) with a fully deterministic symptom guide that links to the right SeqBench tools.

Open tool →
Base Editing Designer

Find CBE (C→T) or ABE (A→G) base-editing gRNAs that place your target base in the editor's activity window, with bystander flags and amino-acid consequences.

Open tool →
RNA Structure (MFE)

Fold an RNA to its minimum-free-energy secondary structure — dot-bracket, MFE, base-pair list and an exportable arc diagram, without installing ViennaRNA.

Open tool →
Gene Explorer

Search a gene and get its exon/CDS structure, a druggability/disease/drug/trial/paper dossier, and a GTEx + Human Protein Atlas expression fingerprint — all in one page.

Open tool →
Functional Enrichment

Test a gene list for enriched GO terms and Reactome pathways with hypergeometric p-values and BH-FDR correction.

MSA Viewer

Align several DNA or protein sequences and view a colored alignment with a consensus.

Open tool →
Virtual Gel

Predict restriction fragments and see the simulated agarose gel with a ladder.

Open tool →
Variant Comparator

Align a query to a reference and list substitutions, insertions and deletions with effects.

Open tool →
Pairwise Alignment

Align two sequences with Needleman-Wunsch or Smith-Waterman.

Open tool →

Open tool →
Sanger vs Reference

Align a Sanger read to a reference and get a pass / needs-review verification report.

Open tool →
Sequencing Read-Back Verification

Align many NGS/Nanopore/Sanger reads to a reference with minimap2, call multi-read consensus variants, and build a corrected consensus sequence.

Open tool →
Plasmid Annotator

Auto-detect promoters, tags, origins and resistance markers in a plasmid and render them on a map.

Open tool →
Volcano Plot
