Hit save control-shift-s and repeat for each group of bioedt. Each group should choose one of the sequence files on the disk, and copy biodeit from drive A to the desktop.
Then I undo the cut, select all the sequences Edit, Select All Sequences, control-shift-acopy them control-a–note that copy and pasting sequences is different to any other copy and paste action. Select from the next next residue to the end. Guide to editing sequences with Chromas and BioEdit
On the middle toolbar 2nd in the alignment window change mode to edit, change box next to it to insert. For each gene within a dataset I usually have this file with the forward, reverse and consensus. This creates a duplicate sequence that can be edited without changing the original sequence. I then select those sequences control-shift-acut control-shift-c or copy them control-a and paste them control-s to the desired BioEdit file.Ĭlick on the File menu, Export as text. MEGA also has an alignment editor, but I’ve not really used it very much. BioEdit can also edit chromatograms, but I find Chromas to be nicer. BioEdit is a mouse-driven, easy-to-use sequence alignment editor and sequence analysis program designed and written by a graduate student. This is likely to be the final release of BioEdit.
