## What is Helix Genetics?

Helix is a focused reference and study tool for the genetic code — every codon, every amino acid, and a live transcription/translation playground in your pocket.

Whether you are a biology student grinding for an exam, a med-school applicant brushing up on biochemistry, or a curious mind who just wants to understand how DNA becomes protein, Helix gives you the answer in one tap.

KEY FEATURES
• Full codon table — all 64 codons mapped to their amino acid, with start and stop calls
• Amino acid reference — names, three-letter and one-letter codes, side-chain class, and structure
• Transcribe & Translate — paste or type a DNA sequence and watch it become mRNA and protein in real time
• Quiz mode — drill yourself on codon → amino acid, amino acid properties, and start/stop signals
• Search any nucleotide triplet, three-letter code or one-letter code instantly
• Clean, distraction-free design built for quick reference and longer study sessions
• Fully offline — your sequences never leave your device

DESIGNED FOR STUDY
Helix stays out of your way. No accounts, no popups, no upsells. Open the app, find what you need, and get back to learning.

PRIVACY
No tracking. No accounts. No data collection. Sequences you paste stay on your device.
