Fasta_number

Overview

A number of python scripts are provided by this installation. The following information came from the maintainers webpage:

fasta_number.py – Replace FASTA labels with xxx1, xxx2, xxx3 etc, where xxx is a prefix provided as a commend-line argument. Used e.g. to label OTUs as OTU_1, OTU_2 etc.

fastq_strip_barcode_relabel.py – Strips barcode and primer, adds barcode sequence or barcode label to read label.

faqual2fastq.py – Converts from FASTA + QUAL format to FASTQ.

uc2otutab.py – Converts .uc output file from mapping reads to OTUs to an OTU table in tabbed text format.

No version number was available for the scripts, so the install date 02jun2015 has been used to distinguish them from future installs.

Restrictions on use

No license information was available at install time.

Set up procedure

To access the software you must load the modulefile:

module load  python/fasta_number/02jun2015
