rna2dna

Convert RNA sequence of nucleotides to DNA sequence

Syntax

SeqDNA = rna2dna(SeqRNA)

Arguments

SeqRNA

Nucleotide sequence for RNA. Enter a character string with the characters A, C, U, G, and the ambiguous nucleotide bases N, R, Y, K, M, S, W, B, D, H, and V.

Description

SeqDNA = rna2dna(SeqRNA) converts any uracil nucleotides in an RNA sequence into thymine (U-->T), and returns in the same format as DNA. For example, if the RNA sequence is an integer sequence then so is SeqRNA.

Examples

rna2dna('ACGAUGAGUCAUGCUU')

ans =
ACGATGAGTCATGCTT
