Function

   Extract CDS, mRNA and translations from feature tables

Description

   The feature table of sequence database entries often have sections
   like this:

   This specifies that the coding sequence for the gene is constructed by
   joining several sections of code, many of which are in other entries
   in this database.

     _________________________________________________________________

   It is often a tedious and error-prone job to extract the several
   sections of these sequences from the database entries and to join them
   together to construct the indicated finished sequence.

   coderet does this job for you.

   You specify the sequence containing the feature table and it extracts
   the required CDS, mRNA and/or protein sequences specified by this
   feature table. If any sequences are in other entries of that database,
   they are automatically fetched and incorporated correctly into the
   final sequence.

   The translations are not made from the coding sequence, they are
   extracted directly from the translation sequence held in the feature
   table.

Usage

   Here is a sample session with coderet

   To extract all of the CDS, mRNA, non-coding and the protein
   translations:


% coderet 
Extract CDS, mRNA and translations from feature tables
Input nucleotide sequence(s): tembl:x03487
Output file [x03487.coderet]: 
Coding nucleotide output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.cds]: 
Messenger RNA nucleotide output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.mrna]: 
Translated coding protein output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.prot]: 
Non-coding nucleotide output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.noncoding]: 

   Go to the input files for this example
   Go to the output files for this example

   Example 2

   To only extract the mRNA sequence:


% coderet -nocds -notranslation -norest 
Extract CDS, mRNA and translations from feature tables
Input nucleotide sequence(s): tembl:X03487
Output file [x03487.coderet]: 
Messenger RNA nucleotide output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.mrna]: 

   Go to the input files for this example

Output file format

   The output is a sequence file containing any CDS, mRNA and protein
   translation sequences as specified by the feature table of the
   sequence(s).

   One or more of CDS, mRNA, translation can be excluded from the output
   by using the appropriate qualifiers to the program (i.e. -nocds, etc.)

   The ID names of the output sequences are constructed from the name of
   the input sequence, the type of feature being output (i.e. cds, mrna,
   pro) and a unique ordinal number for this type to distinguish it from
   others in this sequence. The name, type and number of separated by
   underscore characters. Thus the second CDS feature in the sequence
   'HSXYZ' would be named 'HSXYZ_cds_2'.

   The translations are not made from the coding sequence, they are
   extracted directly from the translation sequence held in the feature
   table.
