Exercise 1
Read a Fasta File in your current directory and print the complement of the sequence
Exercise 2
List the Standard codon tables available for translation of the nucleotide sequences
Exercise 3
List the Vertebrate Mitochondrial codon tables available for translation of the nucleotide sequences
Exercise 4
Find out the synonym codons of a any three letter codon in the standard codon table

Learn more about Data Pre-Processing in the online course R Data Pre-Processing & Data Management – Shape your Data!. In this course you will learn how to:

  • import data into R in several ways while also beeing able to identify a suitable import tool
  • use SQL code within R
  • And much more

Exercise 5
Read a Fasta File in your current directory and translate into amino acids using Vertebrate Mitochondrial codon table
Exercise 6
Read a Fasta File in your current directory and do frame 1 translation into amino acid sequences.
Exercise 7
Read a Fasta File in your current directory and do frame 1 translation into amino acid sequences and create a string of amino acid sequences from the vector
Exercise 8
Read a Fasta File in your current directory and do translation into amino acid sequences and find the Iso Electric Point of the translated sequence
Exercise 9
Read a Fasta File in your current directory and do frame 1 translation into amino acid sequences and find the Molecular Weight of the translated sequence
Exercise 10
Open the Nucleotide Fasta file and translate the sequences to Amino acids and plot a graph based on different categories of amino acids in the sequence.
