Fasta Max length synonyms

This software selects the gene synonyms with larger Fasta sequences. The result is a Fasta file with the larger sequence/gene. To increase speed the fasta file is loaded into RAM, do not use this software with large fasta file on low memory computers.

Manual :

1- install Perl free programming language and GNU parallel.

2- unzip the software

3- copy your Fasta files in the “fasta” directory.

4- copy the genes => synonyms table in the "list" directory

- first column : gene names

- second column : fasta gene ref including

- separator : TAB

example :

The Fasta file should start by the gene synomym :

example :

5- edit config.txt to set the number of CPUs for parallel processing.

6- execute the software by the command : perl Max_synonym_FASTA.pl

7- processed files are in the “results” directory.

8- log files are in the “log” directory.
