I would like to encode binary sequence to DNA sequence by truth table :
00=A
01=C
10=G
11=T
For example:11000110=``TACG
By using C#, My issue, is the DNA sequence is not correctly converted. Does someone can help me PLEASE ?
the code i write is this :
string ds = Convert.ToString(result , 2);
;
int l = ds.Length;
for (int dd= 0; dd < l; dd = dd + 2)
{
if (ds.Contains("00"))
{
ds = ds.Replace("00", "A");
}
if (ds.Contains("01"))
{
ds = ds.Replace("01", "C");
}
if (ds.Contains("10"))
{
ds = ds.Replace("10", "G");
}
else
{
ds = ds.Replace("11", "T");
}
}
listBox7.Items.Add(ds);
Here is my proposal. In fact, there are thousands of possible solutions.
string binary = "011001010101000100101";
var codes = new Dictionary<string, string> {
{"00", "A"},
{"01", "C"},
{"10", "G"},
{"11", "T"}
};
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
for(int i = 0; i + 1 < binary.Length; i = i + 2) {
var localCode = string.Format("{0}{1}", binary[i], binary[i+1]);
string buffer;
var output = codes.TryGetValue(localCode, out buffer) ? buffer : string.Empty;
builder.Append(output);
}
string result = builder.ToString();
