[Bioperl-l] automation of translation based on alignment

Dear Florent,
Sorry for mis-clicking "reply" instead of "reply-all". Here are my problem
details:
Input:
1000 multiple aligned DNA sequences
One of them has Genbank file
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/DQ089804.1?ordinalpos=1
the remaining 999 ones only have genomic sequences.
Objective: to derive the cognate protein aligned sequences. (here have 4
sets as there are 4 overlapping genes)
Difficulties:
1) circular genome
2) there may be in-dels
Hope now the problem has been clarified, Ross

Hi Ross,
Please keep relies on the BioPerl mailing list so that everyone benefits.
You should give detailed explanations of what you are tying to achieve.,
e.g.:
* What type of input file do you have?
* Do you already know the location of the ORFs?
* what is the multiple alignments you are talking about
...
