Bio.Align.fasta module
Bio.Align support for aligned FASTA files.
Aligned FASTA files are FASTA files in which alignment gaps in a sequence are represented by dashes. Each sequence line in an aligned FASTA should have the same length.
- class Bio.Align.fasta.AlignmentWriter(target)
Bases:
AlignmentWriter
Alignment file writer for the aligned FASTA file format.
- fmt: str | None = 'FASTA'
- format_alignment(alignment)
Return a string with the alignment in aligned FASTA format.
- __abstractmethods__ = frozenset({})
- class Bio.Align.fasta.AlignmentIterator(source)
Bases:

Alignment iterator for aligned FASTA files.
An aligned FASTA file contains one multiple alignment. Alignment gaps are represented by dashes in the sequence lines. Header lines start with ‘>’ followed by the name of the sequence, and optionally a description.
