Trim to Reference eliminates the ends of sequences that extend beyond an assembled Reference sequence. Trim Vector removes sequence-specific data contaminating the ends of your sequences. Trim Ends removes misleading data from the ends of sequencing fragments. Sequencher provides simple-to-use but powerful tools that help you trim poor quality or ambiguous data: Unless removed by trimming, any of these artifacts will distort your sequence assembly and downstream sequence analysis. Introns and primer sequence frequently flank the sequence of amplified exons. The sequences of clones from DNA libraries frequently contain vector sequence, polyA tails, or other unrelated sequence. Automated DNA sequencers occasionally produce poor quality reads, particularly near the sequencing primer site, and toward the end of longer sequence runs.
