Redirection

By placing a “>” with a file name at the end of the command line the output can be redirected to a file.

grep sp uniprot_sprot_plants.fasta > out.txt

The “wc” program counts lines or characters in the inputand writes the count to the output

Function

Finds and extracts open reading frames (ORFs)

Description

This program finds and outputs the sequences of open reading frames (ORFs) in one or more nucleotide sequences. An ORF may be defined as a region of a specified minimum size between two STOP codons, or between a START and a STOP codon. The ORFs can be output as the nucleotide sequence or as the protein translation. Optionally, the program will output the region around the START codon, the first STOP codon, or the final STOP codon of an ORF. The START and STOP codons are defined in a Genetic Code table; a suitable table can be selected for the organism you are investigating. The output is a sequence file containing predicted open reading frames longer than the minimum size, which defaults to 30 bases (i.e. 10 amino acids).

Command line options
