Reverse Complement of a DNA sequence | Python 12
The double helix nature and base complementarity rule allows us to derive the sequence of the complementary strand from the template. Also since the two strands run antiparallel, the sequence on the other strand is the complement of the first strand read in the reverse order.
In this lecture, I show how the complement of sequence is generated. I also discuss the pitfalls in the process and also how the complement is reversed to get the final reverse complement.
