SeqKit - a cross-platform and ultrafast toolkit for FASTA/Q file
|
||
|
|
manipulation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FASTA and FASTQ are basic and ubiquitous formats for storing nucleotide
|
||
|
|
and protein sequences. Common manipulations of FASTA/Q file include
|
||
|
|
converting, searching, filtering, deduplication, splitting, shuffling,
|
||
|
|
and sampling. Existing tools only implement some of these manipulations,
|
||
|
|
and not particularly efficiently, and some are only available for
|
||
|
|
certain operating systems. Furthermore, the complicated installation
|
||
|
|
process of required packages and running environments can render these
|
||
|
|
programs less user friendly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This project describes a cross-platform ultrafast comprehensive toolkit
|
||
|
|
for FASTA/Q processing. SeqKit provides executable binary files for all
|
||
|
|
major operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X, and can
|
||
|
|
be directly used without any dependencies or pre-configurations. SeqKit
|
||
|
|
demonstrates competitive performance in execution time and memory usage
|
||
|
|
compared to similar tools. The efficiency and usability of SeqKit enable
|
||
|
|
researchers to rapidly accomplish common FASTA/Q file manipulations.
