I haven't tried it out but 'seqretsplit' from the EMBOSS package might do what you want. Otherwise it's a quick script in Bioperl or Biopython, e.g. in BioPython (untested)
Run like python splitgbk.py < input.gbk
Will create a file for each entry in the current directory.
-- splitgbk.py
Code:from Bio import SeqIO import sys for rec in SeqIO.parse(sys.stdin, "genbank"): SeqIO.write([rec], open(rec.id + ".gbk", "w"), "genbank")

If you want one file per record, try EMBOSS seqret and the -ossingle_outseq option.
EDIT: That probably does the same as EMBOSS seqretsplit suggested by Nick while I was writing this.
Do you just want to break it up into batches, say 10 records in each file? Or, do you have a particular order in mind (which could involve either sorting or random access).

split genbank files using awk
awk -v n=1 '/^\/\//{close("out"n);n++;next} {print > "out"n}' yourfilename.gbk
Split yourfilename.gbk into multiple files by splitting at "//" (end of record) line.Last edited by Richard Finney; 03-20-2012, 09:51 AM.

Thanos - which scripting languages do you know? GenBank records end with a // line (which is what Richard's awk command exploits) so it is very simple to split up a file into sub-files named however you like using Perl, Python or Ruby.

The complexity of cancer is clearly demonstrated in the diverse ecosystem of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME is made up of numerous cell types and its development begins with the changes that happen during oncogenesis. “Genomic mutations, copy number changes, epigenetic alterations, and alternative gene expression occur to varying degrees within the affected tumor cells,” explained Andrea O’Hara, Ph.D., Strategic Technical Specialist at Azenta. “As...-
