Viewing your nucleotide sequences

When you recieve your raw sanger sequences you will usually recieve files with the following extensions .ab1 and .fasta. The .ab1 file is the most useful as it contains the cromatogram which contains information on quality of each base call.

There are lots of programs that you can use to visualise and edit these files.
