About LIFE files
The .LIFE file type is a proprietary file format developed by the Life Technologies Corporation. It is used to store data from the companys gene sequencing instruments, such as the Ion Proton and Ion Torrent systems. The .LIFE file type is not natively supported by any other software and is not compatible with any other file format. As such, it is necessary to convert .LIFE files to other formats in order to use them in other applications.
The most common way to convert .LIFE files is to use the Ion Torrent Suite software provided by Life Technologies. This software can convert .LIFE files to FASTQ, FASTA, SAM, BAM, and VCF formats. Additionally, there are several bioinformatics software packages that can convert .LIFE files, such as BioStar and FastQC.
When converting .LIFE files, it is important to consider the quality of the data contained in the file. Poorly formatted data or data that has been corrupted can lead to inaccurate results. Additionally, some software packages may not be able to correctly interpret data in .LIFE files. It is therefore important to ensure that the data is of high quality and is correctly formatted before attempting to convert it.
Despite the availability of software for converting .LIFE files, the process can be time consuming and difficult. Additionally, there is the risk of data corruption or loss during the conversion process. For these reasons, it is often easier to use a free and easy online website such as Convert.Guru to convert .LIFE files.
The LIFE Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.
When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.
Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best LIFE converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
