  • Split long fasta seq into smaller seqs by removing 'n'

    Hello,

    My fasta file has a long consensus sequence (gigabases long) that is padded with 'n' between the actual sequences. Like this:

    actgggacnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnactgacgtggattgc
    aatnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnaccaattggatagagaccnnn

    I've searched rather intensively to see if the internet can solve my problem. Not really, though they were close. For example, people report splitting the long sequence into smaller files but I do not want that. I want the n removed and have all sequences in the same file. Better yet, with the start and end of the sequences.

    Desired output (>seqname_start_end) :
    >seq1_1_8
    actgggac

    >seq2_35_52
    actgacgtggattgcaat

    >seq3_68_85
    accaattggatagagacc

    If anyone could point me towards a right tool (bioperl, etc) or give me a pseudo-code in perl, I would appreciate it.

    Thanks.

      Great! Thanks a lot! Worked flawlessly.

      It doesn't get me the start/end of the base positions but that I can live with.

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
