The RiBoSor is a tool to create overlapping reading frames within an existing gene.
Creation of a new reading frame is achieved using codon redundancy in the genetic code, so the function of the original gene is preserved.
Such overlapping reading frame permits to initiate the translation of two proteins in the same sequence.
./ribosor.py input.fasta
will treat separately all gene sequences present in the input fasta file. The program will create a directory input
, and one sub-directory per input sequence.
Full documentation is available with ./ribosor.py -h
