Reverse engineering SARS-CoV-2
corona is an exploratory bioinformatics project that applies reverse-engineering ideas to SARS-CoV-2. It treats biological information processing as an analogy to software analysis to help explain the viral genome from first principles. Python scripts download genomic sequences from GenBank and translate RNA into amino-acid chains. The project identifies and annotates proteins encoded by the genome. It also experiments with OpenMM for molecular simulation and protein-folding work. Supporting data, protein resources, vaccine-related material, research questions, and analysis notes make the repository a hands-on workspace for studying viral structure and genetics.
