File formats usable with OBITools
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The sequence files
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Sequences can be stored following various format. OBITools knows
|
|
some of them. The central format for sequence files manipulated by OBITools scripts
|
|
is the :doc:`fasta format <fasta>`. OBITools extends the fasta format by specifying
|
|
a syntax to include in the definition line data qualifying the sequence.
|
|
All file formats use the :doc:`IUPAC <iupac>` code for encoding nucleotides and
|
|
amino-acids.
|
|
|
|
.. toctree::
|
|
:maxdepth: 2

|
|
The taxonomy files
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Many OBITools are able to take into account taxonomic data. These data
|
|
are manipulated following the `NCBI taxonomy`_.
|
|
|

|
|
The ecoPCR files
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
ecoPCR_ is a software developed in LECA_. It simulates a PCR experiment by
|
|
selecting in a sequence database, sequences matching simultaneously two
|
|
primers sequences in a way allowing a PCR amplification of a DNA region.
