Create a sequence CSV file
Procedure
- In Excel (or another spreadsheet application), create a new spreadsheet.
- (Mandatory) Create a "Sequence" column by doing the following:
- In cell A1, type "Sequence" to label the column.
- In the rows below cell A1, type or paste up to 500 sequence chains, using either single-base notation (ATCGA) or triplet notation (Ad-pTd-pCd-pGd-pAd).
- (Optional) Create a "Name" column by doing the following:
- In cell B1, type "Name" to label the column.
- In the rows below cell B1, enter the name of each sequence chain.
- Save the spreadsheet as a
.csv
file.
Import sequences using the CSV file
Prerequisites
- You are viewing the Oligonucleotide Workbook and Calculator Editor.
- You have created a .csv file containing the oligonucleotide sequences you want to import.
Procedure
- In the Oligonucleotide Calculator and Workbook Editor, select Import Sequence and then select Sequence List (.csv) on the command bar.
- The Open dialog box opens.
- In the dialog box, locate and select the appropriate .csv file and then select Open.
- The application automatically reads the .csv file and imports the list of sequences into the oligo workbook.
- The Results table updates and displays the theoretical components for the imported sequences.
