[EMBOSS] Netblast search of swissprot and trembl......

[Richard Rothery]

I am using blastcl3 to search NCBI using multiple bait sequences in
fasta format. I can readily search swissprot using this program, but
cannot search trembl. The NCBI accession numbers (ie just numbers) that
blastcl3 returns require re-labelling of the sequences to make clustal
outputs, phylogeny analyses etc. meaningful.

 

Is there an easily-installed linux client that can search trembl? Can
blastcl3 be forced to do it?

 

What I would like to do is feed seqret a file containing the trembl
accessions. This would generate a fasta file with more meaningful titles
comprising the accession number followed by the swissprot organism
abbreviation.

 

Thanks,

 

Richard
