BACKTRANSEQ(1e)

πŸ’– BACKTRANSEQ πŸ’– (that's the backtranseq page from the EMBOSS manual for Debian, bestie, section 1e)

okay so picture this: you've got a protein sequence and you want it back as nucleotides. that's it. that's the whole vibe. this page is your group chat with the terminal. let's go πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

backtranseq β€” back-translate a protein sequence to a nucleotide sequence πŸ’…

like... literally what it says on the tin. protein in, nucleotide out. no cap.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

backtranseq -sequence seqall [-cfile codon] -outfile seqoutall

backtranseq -help

so <pink>-sequence</pink> and <pink>-outfile</pink> are the non-negotiables (the main characters, honestly), and <pink>-cfile</pink> is the optional little side quest in brackets. and if you're lost, -help is right there 🫢


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

backtranseq is a command line program straight outta EMBOSS β€” aka β€œthe European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite” 🌈✨

it's part of the <cyan>"Nucleic:Translation,Protein:Composition"</cyan> command group(s). so yeah. it runs in a terminal, it does its lil back-translation thing, it's giving bioinformatics royalty. πŸ‘‘


πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

🧬 Input section

  • -sequence seqall β€” your input protein sequence(s). feed it the goods πŸ“
  • -cfile codon β€” the codon file. default value: <hotpink>Ehuman.cut</hotpink> (yes that's the default, don't come for me, it's literally right there)

πŸ“€ Output section

  • -outfile seqoutall β€” where the nucleotide output goes. your back-translated masterpiece gets written here πŸ’–

😭 BUGS 😭

found a bug? not the vibe, but okay, here's where to snitch:

they'd genuinely love to hear from you fr fr πŸ™ˆ


πŸ¦‹ SEE ALSO πŸ¦‹

backtranseq is fully documented via the tfm(1) system. so if you want the deep lore, that's the portal ✨

and that's the whole page, bestie!! this was EMBOSS 6.4.0, dated 05/11/2012, living its BACKTRANSEQ(1e) truth β€” now go back-translate something and slay βœ¨πŸ’–πŸ§š
