aminoXpress

aminoXpress is a handy CAD tool designed for biochemists. It's great for entering sequences using regular protocols or by picking building blocks and their counts. Plus, it can handle complex stuff like branched, cyclic, and long sequences without breaking a sweat.

Features of aminoXpress

This software has a clean lineup of features, but there's a lot to tweak and play with. So, you might want to spend some time getting to know how everything works before diving in.

Getting Started with aminoXpress

If you’re unsure where to start, there’s a helpful manual packed with details about what the program can do. Here are some key steps for processing data:

• Load your sequences into the workspace.


• Examine sequences in the single-entry module (like checking molecular weight).


• Switch between loaded sequences in your workspace.


• Analyze sequences in the multi-entry module.

Amino Acid Analysis Made Easy

With aminoXpress, you can enter analysis results for any amino acids you want included in your optimization process. You also get to choose your favorite method whether it’s least square, least difference, or difference/count.

Data Management Features

You can build block compositions and pick how to sort data using combinatorial scans or Monte Carlo methods. Plus, you can submit protein or peptide sequences for digestion, enable elemental analysis, and even fragment sequences!

Molecular Weight Calculations

The program helps calculate molecular weights of libraries and their distributions. It even finds common motifs automatically and sorts them by frequency! You can also calculate weights of compounds using amino acids as building blocks.

User-Friendly Options

Last but not least, it lets you switch between one-letter codes and three-letter codes for all fields easily. You can manage all your database info—add, change or delete entries as needed—and back up everything!

AminoXpress packs powerful features perfect for biochemistry work! Just keep in mind that while it's super useful, the interface isn’t always super intuitive.
