Software Overview
Genome Compiler is a genetic design program for Windows and OS X. The software is available in three different versions: online, enterprise, and desktop (the online and desktop versions are free), but it is now discontinued.
The software enables you to design, build, and test biological components, such as DNA and protein sequences. It provides a variety of advanced design tools, such as automatic annotation, a compilation engine, whole-genome engineering, combinatorial design, and data management and collaboration. The online version allows you to work on projects stored in its cloud that are accessible from anywhere, as well as collaborate with other users.
When working on projects, the software uses the .GCPROJ file extension to store project data. You can also export your project to GenBank, FASTA, and text formats.
Genome Compiler is a versatile program that provides helpful tools and can export to several popular DNA and protein sequence formats, such as GenBank and FASTA. It's also an affordable choice for designing, building, and testing sequences. However, the software is no longer developed.
