FASTA is a format to exchange generic information, partial or of the entire
|
|
organism.
|
|
|
|
A function "faidx" (FAsta InDeX) creates a small flat index file ".fai" allowing
|
|
for fast random access to any subsequence in the indexed FASTA file, while
|
|
loading a minimal amount of the file in to memory. This python module implements
|
|
pure Python classes for indexing, retrieval, and in-place modification of FASTA
|
|
files using a samtools compatible index. The pyfaidx module is API compatible
|
|
with the pygr seqdb module. A command-line script "faidx" is installed alongside
|
|
the pyfaidx module, and facilitates complex manipulation of FASTA files without
|
|
any programming knowledge.
