SynMut: Tools for Designing Synonymously Mutated Sequences with Different Genomic Signatures
Haogao Gu, Leo L.M. Poon
##### This work was conducted in School of Public Health, The University of Hong Kong under the supervison of Prof. Leo Poon.
Introduction
SynMut designs synonymous mutants for DNA sequences.
There are increasing demands on designing virus mutants with specific dinucleotide or codon composition. This tool can take both dinucleotide preference and/or codon usage bias into account while designing mutants. It also works well for desinging mutants with extremely over-/under- represented dinucleotides.
This tool was originally designed for generating recombinant virus sequences in influenza A virus to study the effects of different dinucleotide usage and codon usage, yet the functions provided in this package can be generic to a variety of other biological researches.
Components of the package

Installation
Use the below code to install the package.
```r
Stable version
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager")) install.packages("BiocManager")
if (!requireNamespace("SynMut")) BiocManager::install("SynMut")
Development version
if (!requireNamespace("devtools")) install.packages("devtools")
if (!requireNamespace("SynMut")) devtools::install_github("Koohoko/SynMut") ```
Example and methods
Details tutorial please refer to the vignette.
The strategies and functionalities of the codom_mimic and dinu_to functions can be found at here.
