[Bioperl-l] about gene "boundaries"

[shafeeq rim]

Hi Dimitar,

Attached is a C++ program to do your job. It is extremely faster than perl. Can do your job in less than a second even for full chromosome 1.

Steps:-
1- Download FASTA file and then remove the header. (>asdasfdasfassa)
2- Use RemoveNewline.pl program like this   
     RemoveNewline.pl inputfile > outputfile
3- You have to compile the C++ program using this command.
    
g++ ExtractSequence.cpp -o ExtractSequence
4- Then you can use the C++  program like this in linux:-
   
./ExtractSequence inputfilename start stop 
 or  
In Windows
    
ExtractSequence inputfilename start stop
 
e.g:- ExtractSequence chr1.fasta 10000  20000

Hope this helps.

Thanks
Ashfaq

By local DB, do you mean a BioPerl-based local DB?  Or is it something else?  This is a bit vague.

On the BioPerl side I suggest looking into Bio::DB::SeqFeature::Store for storing and querying genome information (it does exactly what you want if the proper information is loaded), or maybe the Ensembl Perl API, which can be used with a local or remote Ensembl setup.  Beyond that you'll need to be more specific.

I have my human genome in a local DB and some "from-to" data sets corresponding to different chromosomes. So i want to get the DNA seqs for these from-to's. I know i can do that the normal way but if there is a way to do it with BioPerl it will be more consistent with the rest of the code.
