Rationale and background

Clean_fasta_header app removes everything after "|" in the fasta header of the fasta file. The special character "|" is not ideal with many of the bioinformatics tools and it is important to remove them in the fasta header. This app will help you remove one of the special character 

Prerequisites

  1. A CyVerse account (Register for a CyVerse account at https://user.cyverse.org/).

  3. Input: 

    Either one of the below options should be selected for modifying the fasta header. Custom reference genome or any fasta sequence with "|" can be used here

    1. Cutsom Reference genome

    2. Reference genome from DE

  4. Output Folder name: Name of the output folder (default "output")
