Note: SCF - St<strong>and</strong>ard Chromatogram File format is a file format for exchanging data<br />

between different sequencing systems that use four color chromatograms to show<br />

sequencing data. Most current sequencing hardware supports this file st<strong>and</strong>ard.<br />

Exporting protein translations<br />

<strong>Sequencher</strong> can automatically translate bases into proteins as it copies items to the<br />

clipboard. These protein sequences can then be exported to another file or program.<br />

To perform this, select a portion or all of the sequence <strong>and</strong> then go to the Edit menu <strong>and</strong><br />

choose Copy As <strong>and</strong> Protein Translation… from the submenu. <strong>Sequencher</strong> asks you<br />

whether you want to translate only the selected bases or whether you want the entire<br />

sequence but in a specific frame. The default setting is to translate only the bases you<br />

selected. You can then take this copy <strong>and</strong> paste it into another program as you would any<br />

other information.<br />
