TraceTrack

TraceTrack performs batch processing and analysis of Sanger sequencing trace chromatograms to align them to reference sequences and identify mutations for sequence validation.

Key Features:

• Batch Processing Capability: Performs batch alignments of multiple Sanger trace chromatogram files against reference sequences to support high-throughput analysis.
• Alignment and Mutation Identification: Aligns trace sequences to reference sequences and identifies mutations for sequence validation and variant detection.
• Chromatogram Visualization: Provides visualization of chromatogram data to support interpretation of sequence integrity and quality.
• Analysis of Trace Data: Conducts analysis of Sanger trace chromatograms to extract sequence-level information for downstream validation.

Scientific Applications:

• Molecular Biology Subcloning: Verification of cloned inserts and identification of insert-level mutations in subcloning workflows.
• Biological Research: Interpretation and validation of sequence data for general biological research applications.
• Medical Investigations: Detection and validation of sequence variants relevant to medical and clinical investigations.
• Drug Discovery Campaigns: Sequence validation and mutation identification during drug discovery projects.
• Industrial Sequence Validation: Use in industrial and pharmaceutical sequence validation workflows for high-throughput sequence confirmation.

Methodology:

Performs batch alignment of Sanger trace chromatograms to reference sequences using computational alignment algorithms and detects mutations, with accompanying analysis and visualization of chromatogram data.
