DNA Tools

Generate, transcribe, and translate genetic sequences with Zygotrix's high-performance tools.

DNA Generation

Random DNA Sequence

Generate a random DNA sequence of specified length:

curl "http://localhost:8000/api/genetics/dna/random?length=1000"

Response:

{
  "sequence": "ATGCGATCGATC...",
  "length": 1000,
  "gc_content": 0.52
}

Large Sequences

For sequences >1M base pairs, the parallel C++ engine is automatically used:

curl "http://localhost:8000/api/genetics/dna/random?length=10000000"

Transcription (DNA → mRNA)

Convert DNA to messenger RNA:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/genetics/dna/transcribe \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"sequence": "ATGCGATCGATCGATC"}'

Response:

{
  "dna": "ATGCGATCGATCGATC",
  "mrna": "AUGCGAUCGAUCGAUC",
  "template_strand": "TACGCTAGCTAGCTAG"
}

Rules

• A → U (Adenine becomes Uracil)
• T → A
• G → C
• C → G

Translation (mRNA → Protein)

Translate mRNA to amino acid sequence:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/genetics/rna/translate \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"sequence": "AUGCGAUCGAUCGAUC"}'

Response:

{
  "mrna": "AUGCGAUCGAUCGAUC",
  "codons": ["AUG", "CGA", "UCG", "AUC", "GAU", "C"],
  "protein": "Met-Arg-Ser-Ile-Asp",
  "amino_acids": ["M", "R", "S", "I", "D"]
}
