Find Longest Open Reading Frame in RNA sequence

Josip edited this page Mar 12, 2021 · 1 revision

This script iterates through files in input directory looking for files with .frame suffix. After finding longest RNA frame in file, script generates .fasta file containing only longest open reading frame(frame with largest probability of being translated into protein), repeating this process for every file in input directory.

Usage: python find_longest_frame.py --input-dir <input directory>

.frame files are generated from DNA sequences using https://web.expasy.org/translate/ service.
