I need to parse a preliminary GenBank Flatfile. The sequence hasn't been published yet, so I can't look it up by accession and download a FASTA file. I'm new to Bioinformatics, so could someone show me where I could find a BioPerl or BioPython script to do this myself? Thanks!
You need the Bio::SeqIO module to read or write out bioinformatics data. The SeqIO HOWTO should tell you everything you need to know, but here's a small read-a-GenBank-file script in Perl to get you started!
