Additional Details
- Input DNA: Type a valid DNA sequence (using only the letters A, T, C, G) into the "DNA Sequencer Input" text area on the left.
- Synthesize: Click the "Synthesize Protein" button to translate your DNA sequence into a protein chain.
- Visualize: Look at the "Peptide Chain Visualization" panel on the right to see your generated amino acid sequence. Each "bead" is color-coded based on its chemical properties (e.g., hydrophobic, polar, acidic).
- Inspect: Click on any individual amino acid bead in the chain to reveal its specific details, codon mapping, and biological description in the Inspector Panel that appears just below the chain.
- Explore Case Studies: Alternatively, click any of the preset buttons under "Case Studies" (such as the Hemoglobin Wild Type or Sickle Cell mutation) to automatically load and synthesize real-world genetic examples.
