I have a fasta file with a thousand sequences with a distribution of lengths between 100 and 150bp. I would like to add Ns to all sequences whose length is <150. I know it is possible but thus far I have yet to find anything to easily do this. Please help. Thanks!

Not fast, but something like:
Code:perl -e 'while(<>) {if (/^>/) {print;next}; chomp; print $_,"N" x (150-length($_)),"\n"}' in.fastaComment

That looks like it should be plenty fast enough, more likely to be limited by the read speed of the hard drive than the speed of the code.Comment

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
