Is there a tool for converting GenBank sequin format data (.sqn) into the gff3 format? I have a number of .sqn format annotations that I need to get into gff3 for some other tools I'd like to run. I could also use bed format, so a sequin to bed converter would work too.

Not in a single step that I know of. But NCBI has converters from Sequin ASN.1 format to other formats. asn2gb will convert to a Genbank flatfile,
ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/toolbox/ncbi_...rogram/asn2gb/
and then it looks like there are various options (search for "gb2gff") to finish the conversion.

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...Today, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
