Greetings BIONAUTS, Internetters, NetFolk, GCG/Ig Consultants,
I have just downloaded the AIDS database produced by Gerald D. Myers and Kersti
McInnes from the NCBI data repository. After unpacking I have now ended up
with a directory structure as below. I want to convert these sequences to a
GCG and Ig data library. Both these packages have the tools to handle the
GenBank and PIR formatted entries but I was wondering if anyone had written a
quick jiffy just to pick out the sequences and ignore the alignments and
supporting info (I dont want to reinvent the wheel). Also could anyone tell me
the difference between a file with no extensiona and a .NF extension file diffs
would suggest only changes in the annotation and not the sequence.
Many ADVthanksANCE - and a Merry Chritmas and a Peaceful New Year!
