💖 FSA-TRANSLATE 💖

okay bestie, so this is fsa-translate from the FSA fam — the glow-up edition of a classic. it lives in section 1 of the manual (user commands, the ones you actually type, iykyk) and it is here to turn your nucleotides into protein. periodt. 🧬✨

✨ NAME ✨

fsa-translate — translate input nucleotide sequences into protein sequence 🫶

literally what it says on the tin. nucleotides in, protein out. the biological pipeline of your dreams. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

translate <FASTA file>

that's it. one argument. one file. iconic minimalism. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

translate from FSA 1.15.9 💜

so what does it do? it translates input nucleotide sequences into protein sequence. that's the whole vibe. 🧚

a couple things you gotta know though, no cap:

  • the input nucleotide sequences must be in FASTA format. that's not a suggestion, that's the rules. 📋
  • it uses the first reading frame. just frame one. no scrolling, no searching, no other frames. main character frame energy only. 🌟
  • it drops incomplete codons at the ends of sequences. so if your sequence ends mid-codon, those leftover bases get left behind. gone. not invited. 💀
ngl this is the "trust the process" tool. first frame, incomplete codons yeeted, protein delivered. slay. 🎀

and that's a wrap, bestie! 🎉 this gorgeous little page is from fsa-translate 1.15.9, dated December 2015 — vintage but still serving. go translate something cute. 💖🌸🦋
