PlasCAD: Open-source plasmid editor
Hey! This is an open source plasmid and vector (Short, often circular segments of DNA) editor, with features related to primer quality checks, PCR cloning, and protein analysis. I plan to add more restriction-enzyme-based features in the near future. It has some extras like a solution-mixing helper, automatic feature annotation. From a technical standpoint, this is a standalone binary written using the EGUI library in rust. A project goal is performance, with small memory footprint, and small application and file sizes. This is a continuous work-in-progress, and I'm open to any and all…
In plain words
PlasCAD is an open-source plasmid and vector editor designed for molecular biology work. It offers primer quality checks, PCR cloning analysis, and protein analysis capabilities, with planned restriction-enzyme features. The tool includes a solution-mixing helper and automatic feature annotation. Built in Rust using EGUI, it emphasizes performance with a small memory footprint and compact file sizes. Available as a standalone binary, it remains under active development.
