[BiO BB] RE: BiO_Bulletin_Board digest, Vol 1 #584 - 4 msgs

Hello Jordan,
Yes, it is possible, but first you have to create a Fasta file
out of these Genbank files gbpln[1-9].seq. So that means you
have to extract all the sequences from above files and store
them in a FASTA format. Once you have fasta file, then you have
to create blastble by using formatdb by using following command

formatdb -i <fastafile_name> -p F 

then you are able to blast against this fastafile. I hope this
will help you, if you need more info please contact me either
in the group or @ satagopam_p at yahoo.com

regards
venkata

Reply-To: bio_bulletin_board at bioinformatics.org

I've downloaded and installed blast and some FASTA
databases for a lab I'm working for.  I have a user
who is blasting (using blastx) against a list of
clones.  Unfortunately, the database files I
downloaded do not contain enough information for
her(because they are fasta format)

This leads me to believe that I need a local copy of
the genBank files.  I've downloaded gbpln[1-9].seq
from NCBI. (we only need plant files).  Is it possible
to blast against these gb files?  Also, what options
do I need to use on formatdb to create the correct
index files?

If my questions are out of place here, let me know and
I'll desist.

You mean that the BLAST results only have the Fasta file annotation in
them. Well, AFAIK, the only input to formatdb is Fasta or ASN.1. The
output, anyhow, would be a one-liner.

How about giving her the output in HTML (-T option)? blast automatically
builds a link from each hit to the NCBI page. So using a browser, your
coworker can skim the one-line annotation, and then click & delve into
the more interesting ones.

You can only formatdb from ASN.1 or Fasta formats.

 Hi, I'm a student of Chemistry in University of Indonesia. Currently, I'm working my research about xylitol enzyme. I want to study its hidrolisis yield on rice beech. The problem is: I have trouble on many aspects. I don't know how to prepare the sample, and I don't know how to caracterize it result with HPLC. Is any one can help me? Please sent me your e-mail to me if you can help me with this xylitol enzyme. Thank you.
