How to Use FASTA Sequences with FASTAplayer

Download FASTA files from these databases and upload them directly to FASTAplayer. Each sequence will be converted into unique musical compositions based on the genetic code mapping. Experiment with different organisms, genes, and protein sequences to discover how biological diversity translates into musical diversity. Try sequences from different species to hear how evolutionary relationships sound in music!

Recommended Starting Sequences

Beginner-friendly sequences: Human insulin gene, E. coli lac operon, Arabidopsis thaliana flowering genes
Interesting musical patterns: Ribosomal RNA genes, mitochondrial DNA, viral genomes
Comparative studies: Same gene across different species, paralogous genes, orthologous sequences
