Complementary Sequence of the given DNA/RNA Sequence

Enter you sequence in the text area and it will immediately convert your sequence as per your provided settings.

What does this tool do?

This tool can process a given RNA or DNA sequence to result:

  1. Reverse Sequence
  2. Complementary Sequence
  3. Reverse Complementary Sequence

Here are few questions which you might needed to know-

What is a Reverse Sequence of a DNA or RNA Sequence?

Reverse Sequence of a given DNA or RNA sequence is resultant sequence which is in reverse direction. For example, if the reverse of the sequence 5'-AAGA-3' will be 5'-AGAA-3'.

What is a Complementary Sequence of DNA or RNA Sequence?

To find the complementary DNA or RNA sequence of a given DNA or RNA sequence, you can use the following rules:

DNA Complementary Rules:

  • A pairs with T
  • C pairs with G

RNA Complementary Rules:

  • A pairs with U
  • C pairs with G

For example, given the DNA sequence "ATCG", the complementary DNA sequence would be "TAGC".

Similarly, given the RNA sequence "AUCG", the complementary RNA sequence would be "UAGC".

You can use these rules to find the complementary sequence of any DNA or RNA sequence by simply replacing each nucleotide with its complementary nucleotide.

What is a Reverse Complementary Sequence?

The reverse complementary sequence of a DNA or RNA sequence is the sequence obtained by reversing the original sequence and then finding its complementary sequence.

For example, given the DNA sequence "ATCG", the reverse complementary DNA sequence would be "CGAT".

To find the reverse complementary sequence of a DNA or RNA sequence, you can follow these steps:

  1. Reverse the original sequence: For example, the reversed sequence of "ATCG" would be "GCAT".
  2. Find the complementary sequence using the appropriate complementary rule.
