Software
The following list of software was used in the team:
- Unipro UGENE
UGENE is a free open-source cross-platform bioinformatics software. We used it to construct and annotate all needed sequences, search for restriction sites and visualization.
- Vector NTI (commercial)
All our primers were designed using Vector NTI which is also used by our advisors.
- BLAST
BLAST was our main sequence search tool. It was quite useful for controlling sequence results.
- Google Drive
Google Drive was used for our documentation and all of our collaborative work (papers, poster, images).
