MacVector displays the information in two panes in a single window, along with (optionally) quality information. Sequencher uses two coordinated windows to displaythe contig alignment and any associated chromatogram files

Unlike Sequencher, MacVector lets you have multiple projects open at one time. Like Sequencher, MacVector with Assembler provides a simple Project-oriented interface where you can import and drag and drop files for Assembly.

It provides almost all of the functionality of Sequencher within an updated modern interface, along with a host of additional functionality and integration with all of the DNA analysis tools within the core MacVector application.įor a limited time, we are offering a 50% discount to all Sequencher users who wish to upgrade to MacVector with Assembler. MacVector with Assembler has been fully 64-bit for many years (since MacVector 13) and has no dependency on the "Carbon" framework. That day ihas finally arrived and until Sequencher is completely rewritten for the latest macOS, you cannot upgrade your Mac to Catalina. The root of this problem is that Sequencher 5.4.6 (the latest version for the Mac) is a 32-bit application and is particularly reliant on an ancient "Carbon" OS 9-compatibility framework that Apple has been telling developers for many years will be phased out in the near future. If you use the popular Sequencher sequence assembly program from Genecodes you cannot run the current version of Sequencher Sequencher does not run on macOS 10.15 ("Catalina") Sequence Analysis Tools for Molecular BiologistsĬomparing MacVector with Assembler with Sequencher
