Bellow is a list of properties that should be included:
Name
Symbol
Unit
Explanation
Type of biomolecule
Note
Molecular mass
M
kDa (Da and MDa rarely used; 1Da=1g/mol)
The mass of one mole (6,022 x 20^24 molecules) of the substance
Peptide/RNA/DNA
Isoelectric point
pI
Dimensionless
pH at what the protein has no charge
Peptide
Median of all pKa values for that peptide
Melting temperature
Tm (m in subscript)
Celsius
Temperature at what half of the NA is denatured
RNA/DNA
Extinction coefficient
ε (lowercase epsilon)
1/Mcm; M=mol/L
Measure of how much light of a specific wavelength the substance absorbs; constant for one substance and one λ
Peptide
We will have ε only for λ=280nm
Hydrophobicity
"Fear of water", how much certain residues dislike a water environment; it can influence many things like: solubility, the ability to pass though the cell membrane etc.
Peptide
The output should not be a number, but a graph with the x-axis representing residue numbers, and the y representing hydrophobicity of every amino acid residue
Monomer count
How many monomers of each type there are in the biomolecule, for example: 3 alanines, 5 cysteines etc.
Peptide/RNA/DNA
Molecular mass
Any one structure in macromolecules mode
The mass of one monomer is the mass of the structure minus the mass of leaving group atom(s) if an attachment point is occupied.
The molecular mass of the whole polymer is the sum of the molecular masses of its monomers plus the molecular mass of any small molecules.
Indigo should return one numerical value with the unit in kDa (1kDa=1000g/mol)
Isoelectric point
Only peptides
Peptide is any chain that has one or more amino acids in the backbone.
pKa values for all ionizable groups of all monomers should be determined, ignoring the leaving group atoms if an attachment point is occupied.
pI should be the median (not the mean!!!) of all pKa values for all groups of that polymer.
Indigo should return one numerical value.
Melting temperature
Only for two chains of RNA/DNA where every base is connected via a hydrogen bond to a base from the other chain
Variables for the equation are:
SP (strength parameter per base),
L (length of nucleotide sequence),
UPC (molar (mol/L) concentration of unipositive cations; value can be entered by user in mM, but the default value is the average physiological - 140 mM)
NAC (molar (M=mol/L) concentration of the nucleotide strands; user should enter the value in units μM or nM)
Bases C, T and U are pyrimidines (Y), bases A and G are purines (R). Indigo should read only one chain from the 5' direction observing pairs of nucleotides and assign them a strength parameter (see bellow). Dividing the sum of strength parameters by a number of bases, one gets the strength parameter per base (SP)
Let's say we have a double stranded DNA with the sequence of one strand being: 5'-GACGAATGCT-3'
First we observe the pair GA - in the table bellow we get 8.
For AC=10; CG=10; GA=8; AA=5; AT=7; TG=7; GC=13; CT=8.
For a ten nucleotide sequence we have 9 nucleotide pairs whose sum of strength parameters is 76. So, the strength per base is (SP) 7,6.
The equation for the melting temperature is as follows:
Tm [°C] = 7,35 * SP + 17,34 * ln(L) + 4,96 * ln(UPC) + 0,89 * ln(NAC) - 25,42
Inspecto should return one numerical value.

A, C, G, T, and U are to be considered natural analogues.
Extinction coefficient
Only peptides
For peptides the extinction coefficient (at λ=280nm) is ε = N(W)*5500 + N(Y)*1490 + N(C)*125, where N(W), N(Y), and N(C) are number of tryptophans, tyrosines and cysteines.
Inspecto should return one numerical value.
Hydrophobicity
Only peptides
Indigo should return a list with the x-axis values representing amino acid number (skipping non-amino acids, ambiguous amino acids and amino acids with natural analogue X), and the y-axis values representing the hydrophobicity coefficient of that amino acid (see bellow).

Monomer count
Peptides, RNA, DNA
For peptides, every monomer should be sorted into one of 21 categories (see bellow) and counted.
Peptide is any chain that has one or more amino acids in the backbone.
For RNA/DNA, only bases (who are a part of a nucleotide/nucleoside) should be sorted into one of 6 categories (see bellow) and counted.
RNA/DNA is any chain that has one sugar in the backbone and a base connected to it via R3 (sugar) - R1 (base).
Indigo should return a list containing the number of monomers in each category.
