Re: replace FASTA sequence headers

[Cristoforo]

If you are going to be working with fasta and genes, you might want to see BioPerl. A lot of code has been developed to handle Biogenetics problems. Here is how you might want to parse and print the fasta file using Bio::SeqIO (and Bio::Seq for methods like display_id).

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Bio::SeqIO;

my %lookup;
open my $fh, "<", 'input2.txt' or die $!;

while (<$fh>) {
    chomp;
    my ($id, $replace) = split /\t/;
    $lookup{$id} = $replace;
}
close $fh or die $!;

my $in  = Bio::SeqIO->new( -file   => "input1.txt" ,
                           -format => 'fasta');
my $out = Bio::SeqIO->new( -file   => '>test.dat',
                           -format => 'fasta');

while ( my $seq = $in->next_seq() ) {
    if (defined(my $replace = $lookup{ $seq->id })) {
        $seq->display_id($replace);
    }
    $out->write_seq($seq);
}
