NAME

bp_seqcut.pl - cut FASTA sequences with a given range

USAGE

bp_seqcut.pl [options -h,-s,-e,-f,-w] <FILES>...
bp_seqcut.pl [options -h,-f,-w] s-e <FILES>...

  -h this help message
  -s which residue to start cutting on
  -e which residue to finish cutting on
  -f format of the files, defaults to FASTA but you can specify anything supported by SeqIO from BioPerl
  -w hard wrap width, this might not be supported depending on which format you are using

Description

A script to cut FASTA sequences with a given range `fastacut -s 1 -e 10 *.fasta` or `fastacut 1-10 *.fasta`. This is just a convenience wrapper around the Bio::SeqIO module. Useful if you wish to trim out a section of an alignment to build a profile of a specific region of sequence.
