unalign_fasta: Unalign a Fasta File

In jfq3/RDPutils: R Utilities for Processing RDPTool Output

Description

This function unaligns a combined fasta file and removes any model sequences present. The modified fasta file is written to disk.

Usage

unalign_fasta(in_file, out_file)

Arguments

in_file	The name of the input fasta file. The file is read from disk.
out_file	The name of the modified fasta file written to disk.

Details

This function can be used to unalign renamed representative sequences in order to reduce the file size before uploading the file to the web-based RDP classifier.

Value

This function operates on files. It returns a message that it has completed. It is not normally assigned to a variable; if so, the variable contains only the message.
