๐Ÿงฌ KosherDNA

Paste two genomic sequences (~100kb each) from any mammal.
We'll tell you if it's kosher โ€” using snake DNA signatures.

๐Ÿ”ฌ Sample 1 โ€” paste FASTA or raw sequence (A/C/G/T)
Minimum 50,000 bp required. ~100,000 bp recommended.
๐Ÿ”ฌ Sample 2 โ€” different genomic region
Minimum 50,000 bp. Different chromosome or location.

How does this work?

Every mammalian genome contains transposable elements โ€” "jumping genes" that copy themselves across chromosomes. BovB is a snake-origin element transferred horizontally to ruminants ~50 million years ago. L1 is the universal mammalian LINE element.

Torah-kosher ruminants (sheep, cow, goat) have a BovB/L1 ratio near 1.0 โ€” a unique equilibrium. Non-kosher mammals have ratios near 0 (no BovB) or far from unity.

We scan your sequence for diagnostic 22-mer signatures from BovB and L1 consensus sequences. 5,862 BovB markers + 11,072 L1 markers โ€” zero overlap.
