Capgene
Official Product Page • Stable
DNA sequence viewer & mobile molecular biology editor.
Inspect FASTA files, compute reverse complements, locate open reading frames (ORFs), detect restriction enzyme sites, and format nucleotide sequences right in your pocket.
Why we built Capgene
Designed for molecular biologists, genetics researchers, and biotech students. Capgene eliminates the need to boot up a desktop computer just to inspect an oligonucleotide primer, check a plasmid construct, or calculate melting temperature.
Engineered with focus and precision
FASTA & Sequence Formatter
Color-coded base rendering (A/T/C/G) with custom chunk widths (10bp, 20bp) and 1-based indexing.
Reverse Complement & RNA
Instant conversion between 5'->3', 3'->5' reverse complement, and DNA-to-RNA transcription.
Six-Frame ORF Translation
Translates standard nucleotide sequences into amino acid peptide chains across all 6 reading frames.
Restriction Enzyme Digest
Built-in database of common enzymes (EcoRI, BamHI, HindIII, NotI, etc.) to detect cleavage cuts.
On-Device & Strict Privacy
Capgene operates on a strict zero-telemetry policy. Your personal files, photos, and usage history remain safely on your personal device.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are my proprietary DNA sequences uploaded to servers?
Never. All sequence manipulations and calculations are performed strictly locally in sandbox memory.
