To translate or back translate a sequence:

  • MegAlign – Use the Show as DNA () and Show as Protein () tools to toggle between how sequences are displayed on the Worktable. Each command is applied to all sequences on the Worktable.
  • MegAlign Pro – To display a translation of a nucleotide sequence in MegAlign Pro, use the Tracks panel to apply the Translation track. For details, see the MegAlign Pro User Guide topic Translation track.



    To instead use the translated or back-translated version of a sequence in a MegAlign Pro alignment, first open the sequence in SeqBuilder Pro and change it there there, Then enter the revised sequence in MegAlign.
