Biopython is a collection of Python tools for computational biology and bioinformatics. Biopython contains modules and classes to represent protein sequences, nucleic acid sequences and sequence annotations. Biopython tools can perform common operations such as transcription, translation, obtain complements, reverse complements, parsing, running BLAST etc. We can use Biopython modules to access online databases such as NCBI. Biopython modules can also be used for sequence alignment, phylogenetics, sequence motifs, protein structure etc. Read more
