Reverse and complement nucleic acid sequences (DNA, RNA) using R

In this 1-hour project-based course, you will master the basics of the R language and build an R program to manipulate nucleic acid sequences, including reverse, complement, and reverse-complement operations.

• Understand the basic building blocks in the R language
• Develop an R program for reverse, complement, and reverse-complement nucleic acid sequences (DNA, RNA)
• Read a file containing a long DNA sequence and apply the code to the data

Moreover, you will work with a complete genome for the novel coronavirus, gaining practical experience in handling real-world genomic data. By the end of the course, you will have the skills to manipulate nucleic acid sequences efficiently using R.
