Release notes

 

Introduction

 

This document describes the software updates and improvements to:

  • eProtein Discovery Instrument Software
  • eProtein Discovery Experiment Workflow versions
  • eProtein Discovery software (Cloud-based)

Workflow versions can be identified when users start designing a new experiment. Release versions and description of change will be updated on this document periodically.

List of Releases:

New workflow release: eProtein Discovery™ Screen Experiment 5.1.0

⚠ This workflow will only be available on instruments that has been updated to software version 4.6.2. The following features will not be available retrospectively.
  • A new “Data Analytics” tab has been added that display charts of the experiment results

eProtein Discovery™ (cloud) software release

  • Users now have the capability to bulk import protein sequences from a fasta file by clicking on the + New Protein icon. This enhancement is particularly beneficial for users looking to import 24 sequences or more at once.

  • New status icons have been introduced in the "protein tab," allowing users to quickly view and check run status of each protein without needing to navigate to individual protein page for details.
  • Experiment can now be duplicated and renamed
  • Improved validation of DNA synthesis complexity:
    • Complexity score with IDT recommendation will be displayed in full
    • A warning will be presented if DNA synthesis complexity is above a threshold of 10
    • High complexity AA sequences are blocked from proceeding to the next step
  • Protein sequences can now be exported in csv/fasta format
  • Improved eGene normalization and sequence calculation in the “Possible Constructs” tab
  • Addition of support links, bold, italics etc to notes field in proteins, projects and experiments
  • Amino acid sequences for all possible constructs are now available in the “Possible Construct” table
  • Protein sequences can now be exported in csv or fasta format by clicking on the ellipsis at the end of the protein list
