I look for a software to draw a circular viral genome, indicating the beginning and end of ORFs, which is a way to show the organization of a genome. Sending attached a photo of a genome, which would like to use as an example.

Hi,
You could use APE (A Plasmid Editor).
It is a simple, free and superpowerful software for its simplicity (not even need to install it. It can also read .gb files (GenBank files from NCBI) showing annotated features.
You find it here (http://biologylabs.utah.edu/jorgensen/wayned/ape/).

Hello Dear Max,
Thanks for your help, I will test this software ...

Hi,
after testing a several softwares, I finally bought Gene Construction kit (GCK) from Textco. It is not cheap, but it is very powerful for cloning, drawing maps and restriction maps. I think they have a free demo you can download. http://www.textco.com
Good luck
Hi Marcos,
Invitrogen VectorNTI is also a standard in the market withth plenty of functions (but APE is a freeware as said before so a good software to start with eventually).
Max.
Hi Marcos,
You can also try CLCBio, a great software package that is very user friendly. I believe they offer a free 30 day trial as well.
Hello, Vincent, Shaveta, Bornali, Massimiliano and Barry,
Thanks for your help and attention.
Grateful,
Regards,
Marcos
VectorNTI is very good. Unfortunately is not free. You can do lots of stuff in Bioedit but do not know if you can get a circular genome with it.
Serial Cloner is free and good:

I like Serial cloner the best, but Ape or pDraw are ok too. (Although pDraw isn't Linux-compatible)
