fastacmd retrieves FASTA formatted sequences from a blast(1) database formatted using the `-o' option. An example fastacmd call would be
fastacmd -d nr -s p38398
A summary of options is included below.
-Print usage message
-D NDump the entire database in some format:
fasta
GI list
Accession.version list
-I
Print database information only (overrides all other options)
-L start,stopRange of sequence to extract (0 in start is beginning of sequence, 0 in stop is end of sequence, default is whole sequence)
-P NRetrieve sequences with Protein Identification Group (PIG) N.
-S NStrand on subsequence (nucleotide only):
top (default)
bottom
-T
Print taxonomic information for requested sequence(s)
-a
Retrieve duplicate accessions
-c
Use ^A (\001) as non-redundant defline separator
-d strDatabase (default is nr)
-i strInput file with GIs/accessions/loci for batch retrieval
-l NLine length for sequence (default = 80)
-o filenameOutput file (default = stdout)
-p typeType of file:
guess (default): look for protein, then nucleotide
protein
nucleotide
-s strComma-delimited search string(s). GIs, accessions, loci, or fullSeq-id strings may be used, e.g., 555, AC147927, 'gnl|dbname|tag'
-t
Definition line should contain target GI only
