seqreverse - Calculate reverse strand of nucleotide sequence

Syntax

SeqR = seqreverse(SeqNT)

Arguments

SeqNT

Nucleotide sequence specified by any of the following: Character string with the characters A, C, G, T, U, and ambiguous characters R, Y, K, M, S, W, B, D, H, V, N. Row vector of integers from the table Mapping Nucleotide Integers to Letter Codes. MATLAB structure containing a Sequence field that contains a nucleotide sequence, such as returned by emblread, fastaread, fastqread, genbankread, getembl, or getgenbank.

Description

SeqR = seqreverse(SeqNT) calculates the reverse strand of a DNA or RNA nucleotide sequence. The return sequence, SeqR, reads from 3' --> 5' and is in the same format as SeqNT. For example, if SeqNT is a vector of integers, then so is SeqR.

Examples

Return the reverse strand of a DNA nucleotide sequence.

s = 'ATCG'
seqreverse(s)
ans =
GCTA
