Hi Jen,As the title, I have a [fasta] file that obtained from a [gtf] file,
cuff102.1atcgtaaagggcgat>cuff103.1gtcgttgactNNNNNNNNgtc
and I want to get the output like this to filter the sequences that contain any not[ATCG] character?
cuff102.1atcgtaaagggcgat
I have a large of sequences to filter. I thought a way that firstly convert the file to [interval] file, and secondly SELECT the line not matching the patten /\t[ATCGatcg]*[^ATCGatcg]/.Am I right? Or there is a one-step way ?
Hello,
If the data was in .fastqsanger format, you could use the tool "Manipulate FASTQ", but with .fasta, this is a good way.
But watch your regular expression - test it out on a smaller set to make sure it is doing what you want. I see a "start of the line" character in the middle of your expression ("^"). I see why it could be working, with the prior expression being zero or more (*), but knowing what each character does is generally a good idea. The help on the tool is good as are many web sites, but this is simple. Also, you don't need the // slashes, just enter the expression.
To get you started: I would use something like this, with the Select tool and "Matching":
^..*\t[ATCGatcg]+$
(Only one dot is really required, this is just how I always do it. Adds a bit of a format sanity check into the filter).
Hope this helps!

Hi, It indeed helps.Your regular expression looks brief and more useful.BTW, a start of line (^) between [] and in the first location, for example, [^ATCGatcg] means a character not [ATCGatcg], which maybe not work in the tool SELECT. Thank you for your help!

Hello,
You are right! I forgot about that. Aren't regular expressions fun? And please test it out, if you prefer your method or are just curious, I didn't try it that way. There are usually a few ways to do the same thing when using a regex.
But, I am glad that this helped a bit and good luck with the query,

Hello, Yeah, it's interesting!I have tried and something like "[^ATCGatcg]" is useful.I have a large file to deal with so I will search something to choose an efficient regular expresson. Thank you.
