What's new?

Version 5.3 - September 2020

Bug fix versionS.

Version 5.2 - March 2018

This release brings a complete stabilization of the sequence viewer and sequence manipulation functions.

Version 5.1 - March 2017

This release includes multiple improvements.

  • Support for ABI trace files - Including translation, reverse complement and search.

  • New export functions - Export to clipboard as FASTA and export of all sequences directly from the shell.

Version 5.0 - May 2016

This main release is geared toward stability. Multiple bugs that were difficult to reproduce have been tracked down and fixed. The result is a robust Integrated Development Environment for sequence editing; the sequence window also features split panes to view simultaneous varied locations of the same sequence, giving an unprecedented experience for DNA analysis.

Version 5.0.1 - June 2016. Corrected paste function in FASTA file, added FASTA panel in Viewer.

Version 4.6 - January 2016

This release is oriented towards improving the viewer experience.

  • Co-highlighting - Labels & representations are now clearly associated to prevent any am biguity between feature labes and associated representation.

  • New representations - Novel representations are associated with specitic features.

  • Sequence & feature editing - It is now possible to edit the sequence and the features at the same time to e.g. make a mutation or change a CDS; check sequence editing in the viewer.

Version 4.5 - March 2015

This release is oriented toward code development. Part of GenBeans source code implicated in sequence managment has been outsourced and included into BioBeans platform allowing an easy module integration between the two software.

Version 4.4 - July 2014

  • Navigator - Subview for restriction enzymes, opening of viewer from the navigator, sublocations as node.

  • Sequence Viewer - Feature coloring, tooltips, sequence position, sequence selection based on color, copying of feature sequence.

  • GenBank & EMBL Format- Refreshing the sequence in text mode reorder features by location.

Version 4.0 - April 2013

  • Navigator - A navigation window (navigator) provides a compact view of all features and simplifies their search and finding their position on the sequence.

  • Sequence Viewer - Possibility to highlight parts of the sequence in varied colors.

  • Sequence - Extended feature support; possibility to change of origin; sequence operations such as copy/paste, export, reverse-complementation are now feature friendly.

Version 3.9.1 - December 2012

  • Help Center - The help is now fully incorporated and accessible from within the GenBeans.

  • Sequence Viewer - Possibility to edit notes directly for GenBank and EMBL nucleotide sequence files. Improved representation and multiple bug fixes.

Version 3.7 - December 2011

  • Sequence Viewer - All features are now displayed; feature creation and editing can be done; the overall highlighting has been widely improved. A search capability has been added. Varied displayed elements can be selected individually and their properties are now shown in the properties window.

Version 3.6.1 - July 2011

  • BioToolbar - Information and database search in varied formats and mutiple databases located all around the word can be performed from within GenBeans.

  • Sequence Viewer - Multiple bug fixes. It is now possible to toggle complement sequence and ladder from the editor toolbar;

Version 3.6 - March 2011

  • Sequence Viewer - Release of the sequence viewer which provides users with an interactive editor to manipulate, annotate, and edit DNA sequences effortlessly.

Version 3.5 - August 2010

  • First GenBeans™ Official Release - In this release, all main aspects of GenBeans Integrated Bioinformatics Development (IBE) are in place, including a file explorer, smart sequence editors of some of the main biological sequence formats, and basic sequence analysis. The first draft of the sequence viewer is implemented and should give to users a taste of what is coming up. This a beta version, meaning that the presence of some bugs is expected. Bug fixes will be introduced into a more stable version to be released soon.
