Introduction
ACUA is a Visual Basic based interface for the Insilico codon analysis. This tool provides various unique features like, Nucleotide analysis, statistical codon analysis, Positional nucleotide analysis and interactive analysis of result. Acua can be employed for various statistical analysis. Moreover, Acua also allows the user to edit and save the result for further studies.
ACUA is an offline tool that can be used in a standalone environment. The tool performs Nucleotide analysis for the query sequence(s), and presents the results in spreadsheets, which can be further utilized for statistical analysis. This tool will prove to be highly useful for the scientists who would like to do codon analysis for multiple sequence simultaneously. Acua has the potential to become a part of bioinformatics essential Tool kit. This software is developed with an intention to provide as a freeware for the scientific community.
