Transformation of a GenBank file into a FASTA sequence file and a feature table.
gbk_transformer.py is a python script to transfrom a Genbank file into a FASTA sequence file and a feature table.
For multiple Genbank files transformation, please use gbk_transformer.batch.py instead.
To transform a GenBank file (.gbk, .gb or .gbff) into a FASTA sequence file (.fna, .fas, .fasta), and the annotations into a feature table that can be easily manipulated with programs like EXCEL.
This program was written in Python 3.6.7.
No extra Python module or program is needed to run the program.
If you have Python 3 installed in your system, you could put the program with your GenBank files, and run the program with command like:
python gbk_transformer.py -i input.gbff
The program would then output two files:
input.fna
input.xls
If multiple GenBank files processing is needed, one could first get a list of the input files by using command like:
ls *.gbff>list.gbff.txt
And then process them with gbk_transformer.batch.py:
python gbk_transformer.batch.py -l list.gbff.txt
