GCG

Modes:

a q s

GCG uses EMBLCD indices created with dbigcg to access databases in GCG format. This method uses the

.ref
and
.seq
files created by the GCG suite of programs.

DB mygcgdb [
#required parameters
   method: "gcg"
   format: "embl"
   type: "N"
   dir: "\$emboss_db_dir/gcgembl"
#optional parameters
   fields: "sv des key org"
   file: "*.seq"
   release: "63.0"
   comment: "my comment"
   exclude: "est*"
   indexdir: "\$emboss_db_dir/indices"
]

The EMBLCD index files include the filenames indexed by

dbigcg
. You can use the file: and exclude: attributes to create file-specific subsets from a single
dbigcg
generated index.
