Hi Mark,

The latest version of DNA Strider (1.4) runs just fine on both Tiger and 
Leopard. For more info, you can contact the author directly at 
christian.ma...@cea.fr


You could also try Christian Biertuempfel's suggestion of pDRAW32: if it 
works under Wine on Linux, it should work under Wine (or the commercial 
equivalent Codeweavers Crossover) on OS X as well.


Regards,
Peter.

Hi all,

I've recently come across the program PlasmaDNA which seems pretty good 
for the basics - http://research.med.helsinki.fi/plasmadna/ . It works 
under Mac OS X and Windows... and probably Wine on Linux too.


Cheers,

Roger

There is GENtle which has a whole slew of tools associated with it.   
There are versions for several platforms.

If you're used to Vector NTI, it is pretty similar (and open source  
for the ambitious).

Hi all,

Geneouis also runs on OS X. From my experience (past two years), the  
program works just fine. You can download the trial at http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/math_science/index1.html 
 (second page).


Cheers,

Yann

For basic analysis, editing, etc, i really like ApE, A Plasmid
Editor.  Versions are available for OS X, linux and Windows.

http://www.biology.utah.edu/jorgensen/wayned/ape/

i find it does most everything MacVector does, and a few things
MacVector does not do.

What VectorNTI functionality are you looking for?
