πŸŽ€ AMINO-AC...POSITION(1) πŸŽ€

okay bestie, this is the AMINO-AC...POSITION(1) page from the NCBI Entrez Direct User's Manual πŸ¦‹ let's get into it πŸ’…

✨ NAME ✨

amino-acid-composition is the tool that reports amino acid composition. main character energy πŸ‘‘

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

amino-acid-composition

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so amino-acid-composition looks at the amino acid composition of protein sequences 🧬 it reads them from standard input, one letter per residue, and it doesn't care about letter case (case-insensitive, so it's giving chill 🫢).

For every line of input, it spits out a 26-line, tab-delimited report on standard output πŸ“‹ each row uses a three-letter symbol followed by an n, and it looks like this:

Ala    n
Arg    n
Asp    n
...    ...
Val    n
Xle    n
Xxx    n

the ... rows are just the rest of the list in the middle, and the whole thing is so organized it's literally iconic 😭✨
