Function

   Extract CDS, mRNA and translations from feature tables

Description

   coderet extracts the coding nucleotide sequence (CDS), messenger RNA
   nucleotide sequence (mRNA) and translations specified by the feature
   tables of the input sequence(s). If the sequences to be extracted are
   in other entries of that database, they are automatically fetched and
   incorporated correctly into the output.

   For each input sequence, an output sequence file is written containing
   any CDS, mRNA and protein translation sequences from the input feature
   table. Optionally, the CDS, mRNA, translated protein sequence and
   non-coding nucleotide sequence regions may be written to separate
   files.

Usage

   Here is a sample session with coderet

   To extract all of the CDS, mRNA, non-coding and the protein
   translations:


% coderet
Extract CDS, mRNA and translations from feature tables
Input nucleotide sequence(s): tembl:x03487
Output file [x03487.coderet]:
Coding nucleotide output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.cds]:
Messenger RNA nucleotide output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.mrna]:
Translated coding protein output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.prot]:
Non-coding nucleotide output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.noncoding]:


   Go to the input files for this example
   Go to the output files for this example

   Example 2

   To only extract the mRNA sequence:


% coderet -nocds -notranslation -norest
Extract CDS, mRNA and translations from feature tables
Input nucleotide sequence(s): tembl:X03487
Output file [x03487.coderet]:
Messenger RNA nucleotide output sequence(s) (optional) [x03487.mrna]:

Input file format

   coderet reads one or more nucleic sequences having CDS, mRNA or
   translation headings in their feature tables.

   The input is a standard EMBOSS sequence query (also known as a 'USA')
   with associated feature information.

   Major sequence database sources defined as standard in EMBOSS
   installations include srs:embl, srs:uniprot and ensembl

   Data can also be read from sequence output in any supported format
   written by an EMBOSS or third-party application.

   The input format can be specified by using the command-line qualifier
   -sformat xxx, where 'xxx' is replaced by the name of the required
   format. The available format names are: text, html, xml (uniprotxml),
   obo, embl (swissprot)

   Where the sequence format has no feature information, a second file can
   be read to load the feature data. The file is specified with the
   qualifier -ufo xxx and the feature format is specified with the
   qualifier -fformat xxx

   See: http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/SequenceFormats.html for further
   information on sequence formats.

   See: http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/FeatureFormats.html for further
   information on feature formats.

Output file format

   The output is a standard EMBOSS sequence file.

   The results can be output in one of several styles by using the
   command-line qualifier -osformat xxx, where 'xxx' is replaced by the
   name of the required format. The available format names are: embl,
   genbank, gff, pir, swiss, dasgff, debug, listfile, dbmotif, diffseq,
   excel, feattable, motif, nametable, regions, seqtable, simple, srs,
   table, tagseq.

   See: http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/SequenceFormats.html for further
   information on sequence formats.

   The output is a sequence file containing any CDS, mRNA and protein
   translation sequences as specified by the feature table of the
   sequence(s).

   One or more of CDS, mRNA, translation can be excluded from the output
   by using the appropriate qualifiers to the program (i.e. -nocds, etc.)

   The ID names of the output sequences are constructed from the name of
   the input sequence, the type of feature being output (i.e. cds, mrna,
   pro) and a unique ordinal number for this type to distinguish it from
   others in this sequence. The name, type and number of separated by
   underscore characters. Thus the second CDS feature in the sequence
   'A12345' would be named 'A12345_cds_2'.

   The translations are not made from the coding sequence, they are
   extracted directly from the translation sequence held in the feature
   table.

Notes

   One or more of CDS, mRNA, translation or non-coding regions can be
   excluded from output with the appropriate qualifiers; "no" is prepended
   to the qualifier name, for example -nocds would exclude the coding
   sequence.

   The translations are not made from the coding sequence, they are
   extracted directly from the translation sequence held in the feature
   table.

   The regions of the feature table that concern us are shown below.

   This specifies that the coding sequence for the gene is constructed by
   joining several sections of code, many of which are in other entries in
   this database:
FT   CDS             join(U21925.1:818..987,U21926.1:258..420,
FT                   U21927.1:428..520,U21928.1:196..336,U21929.1:279..415,
FT                   U21930.1:895..1014,516..708)

   This specifies that the messenger RNA sequence for the gene is
   constructed by joining several sections of code, many of which are in
   other entries in this database.
FT   mRNA            join(M88628.1:1006..1318,M88629.1:221..342,
FT                   M88630.1:101..223,M88631.1:46..258,M88632.1:104..172,
