[Bioperl-l] Taxa Id from blast report

[shalu sharma]

Hi Jason,
             Thanks a lot for you suggestion. I tried that too but i am
still not getting super kingdom, actually i don't know how to put super
kingdom in the database.
For example:
This is how i formatted my refseq microbial database:
makeblastdb -dbtype prot -in microbial_protein_mask.fasta -out refMicro
-taxid_map GItaxa.txt -parse_seqids     ( where GItaxa is the file <GI>
<TaxonomyId><newline> ), there is no super kingdom.

So when i run this blast command:
blastx -query test.fas -db refMicro -max_target_seqs 1 -outfmt "6 staxids
sscinames sskingdoms"
246200 N/A N/A
246200 N/A N/A

I would really appreciate you help.

Thanks
Shalu
