    A new computer language called DNA simplifies DNA sequence editing and manipulation. This language, developed from a microcomputer-based DNA sequence editor, is formally described using BNF notation.

    Area of Science:

    • Bioinformatics
    • Computational Biology
    • Computer Science

    Background:

    • DNA sequence analysis is crucial in molecular biology.
    • Existing tools for DNA sequence manipulation can be complex.
    • The need for a specialized language to describe these operations is evident.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel computer language, termed DNA, for describing DNA sequence manipulations.
    • To present a formal definition of the DNA language using Backus-Naur Form (BNF).

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a DNA sequence editor for microcomputers.
    • Design of a computer language (DNA) based on the editor's functionalities.
    • Formal specification of the DNA language using BNF formalism.
