Question

Basically, a GenBank file consists on gene entries (announced by 'gene' followed by its corresponding 'CDS' entry (only one per gene) like the two I show here below. I would like to get locus_tag vs product in a tab-delimited two column file. 'gene' and 'CDS' are always preceded and followed by spaces. If this task can be easily performed using an already available tool, please let me know.

Input file:

 gene            complement(8972..9094)
                 /locus_tag="HAPS_0004"
                 /db_xref="GeneID:7278619"
 CDS             complement(8972..9094)
                 /locus_tag="HAPS_0004"

                 /note="part of four member fumarate reductase enzyme
                 complex FrdABCD which catalyzes the reduction of fumarate
                 to succinate during anaerobic respiration; FrdAB are the
                 catalytic subcomplex consisting of a flavoprotein subunit
                 and an iron-sulfur subunit, respectively; FrdCD are the
                 membrane components which interact with quinone and are
                 involved in electron transfer; the catalytic subunits are
                 similar to succinate dehydrogenase SdhAB"
                 /codon_start=1
                 /transl_table=11
                 /product="fumarate reductase flavoprotein subunit"
                 /protein_id="YP_002474658.1"

Desired output (locus_tag vs product in a tab-delimited two columnfile):

HAPS_0004 hypothetical protein
HAPS_0005 fumarate reductase flavoprotein subunit

In fact, having this output would be ideal, one line for each gene (shown for only one gene):

 locus_tag="HAPS_0004" db_xref="GeneID:7278619" complement(8972..9094) codon_start=1 transl_table=11 product="hypothetical protein" protein_id="YP_002474657.1" db_xref="GI:219870282" db_xref="GeneID:7278619" translation="MYYKALAHFLPTLSTMQNILSKSPLSLDFRLLFLAFIDKR"
Was it helpful?

Solution

perl -nE'
  BEGIN{ ($/, $") = ("CDS", "\t") }
  say "@r[0,1]" if @r= m!/(?:locus_tag|product)="(.+?)"!g and @r>1
' file

output

HAPS_0004       hypothetical protein
HAPS_0005       fumarate reductase flavoprotein subunit
