Question
Hi all,
DNA sequences have traditionally been shared through literature, often scattered or hidden in appendices, making it difficult for the research community to access and use modular sequences.
To enhance collaboration and accessibility, PeptiCloud has introduced a new feature that allows researchers to effortlessly clone and import DNA sequences from other projects into their own. Inspired by open-source collaboration in the software industry, this feature aims to make it easy and error-free for researchers to utilize and build upon sequences created by others.
Check out the cloning feature at www.pepticloud.com!
Thank you,
Chris
Question
Hi all,
Editing DNA sequence has been done traditionally in a word doc or google sheets, which often leads to mistakes and limits the ability to create combinations using various regulatory elements in one location (ex: trying out different promoters or signal sequences for a certain ORF).
To solve such issues, PeptiCloud has created a brand new feature called Sequence Playground. Inspired by visual programming or block-based coding, Sequence Playground treats each DNA segment as a block and allows users to mix and match various blocks to combine multiple sequences in an efficient manner. It also allows users to deconstruct a sequence into smaller segments to be used as components.
Please check out the new feature at www.pepticloud.com!
Thank you,
Chris
Question
PeptiCloud (www.pepticloud.com) is a bioinformatic platform that allows researchers to organize and share their data for their projects as well as collaborate with others in one place. Through PeptiCloud, researchers can package their data and share it in its original form and collaborate on biological sequences through version control. If you are a researcher, could you please try using the platform and provide feedback?
Question
I created two potential gene expression cassettes (constitutive and inducible) for expression of a mutant PETase gene on PeptiCloud using the version tree feature, which allows users to create multiple versions for a biological sequence and organize it in a single location. Could you please check if the cassettes (nodes 3 and 5 in screenshot) are suitable for expression in E. coli K12? The original paper and plasmid sequence are attached in the files section. My project can be found in this link: https://www.pepticloud.com/public-project/PETase.
Question
Dear Scientists and Researchers,
Problem Statement: Managing multiple versions of biological sequences can be challenging, often leading to compromised data integrity and collaboration issues.
Introducing PeptiCloud's Version Control:
  • Create and Manage Versions: Start with an initial sequence and create multiple versions without losing the original or compromising on different visions.
  • Organize Changes: Implement changes and create new branches for different versions, keeping everything organized in one place.
  • Flexible Modifications: Add various elements like promoters, terminators, and tags as new branches to any version of the sequence or go back and edit previously created sequences.
  • Track History: Maintain a detailed history of all modifications, including who made changes and when.
  • Collaborative Projects: Share version trees with others, allowing collaborative viewing and editing. Public projects let non-members view version trees while restricting editing to added members.
