[Biopython-dev] [Biopython (old issues only) - Bug #3074] (Migrated) Please support additional fields in the SeqIO embl parser

[redmine at redmine.open-bio.org]

Issue #3074 has been updated by Peter Cock.

Description updated
Status changed from New to Migrated

While the DR and KW lines have been done, the DT lines are still currently ignored. Filed as a new issue on GitHub (since we are retiring the RedMine issue tracker), see:

Bug #3074: Please support additional fields in the SeqIO embl parser
https://redmine.open-bio.org/issues/3074#change-15385

* Author: Wim De
* Status: Migrated
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: Biopython Dev Mailing List
* Category: Main Distribution
* Target version: 1.53
* URL: 
----------------------------------------
Sequences returned from the Bio.SeqIO parser for 'embl' files don't contain a parsed version of at least the following fields:
DT (date)
DR (database cross references)

Possibly also missing:
KW the keywords field
dataclass field in the ID field

It would be useful to me and I imagine others to have access to these additional fields that are in the original embl files. Not having them means that if you parse embl files, manipulate the sequence and write out the result means losing data or having to manually add the original data back into the file. If you wish to hold on to this data.
