Help getting DNA sequences per protein

Model Organism: Worms Scientific Discussion

Hi all,

I was here: http://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/Downloads

and I downloaded the DNA file - but it appears to be a monolithic
file with very little info. The GFF files are a bit of overkill - plus a
couple are missing.

I was wondering if there are files with just the common name
and the DNA sequence per protein - or do I have to parse the
GFF?

TIA

Are you trying to grab the DNA sequence for every single gene? Do you actually just need the sequences of a few genes? I would suggest looking at WormMart on WormBase. It’s a great tool and can be used for your purpose.

Hi and thanks for your quick reply.

Are you trying to grab the DNA sequence for every single gene?

All the ones with a clearly defined function.

Do you actually just need the sequences of a few genes?

As many as I can get.

Thanks for that site - but I don’t think it suits my needs. Ill either parse the GFF
or translate the DNA.
