Importing sequences

You can import a sequence in different formats. This feature is designed to help you to build sequence listings from sequences generated by other software.

You can import one or more sequences from a file.

For this kind of import, BiSSAP supports the following formats:

  • ST.25
  • XML
  • FASTA
  • EMBL

For patent formats like ST.25 or XML, the difference between sequence import and loading sequence listing is:

  • during loading sequence listing, a new project is created in BiSSAP
  • during import, the sequences are assigned to an existing project

To import a sequence:

  • Right-click Sequences in the Project Browser.

  • Select Sequences and then Import Sequence From A File.
  • A dialog opens. First select the type of file from which you wish to import the sequence.

  • Select whether to import one sequence or all sequences from the file.
  • Select the file.

  • The sequences are imported into the project.
