cazy-parser is a tool that extract information from CAZy in a more usable and readable format. Firstly, a script reads the HTML structure and creates a mirror of the database as a tab delimited file. Secondly, information is extracted from the database according to user inputted parameters and presented to the user as a set of accession codes.
pip install --upgrade cazy-parser
cazy-parser -h
usage: cazy-parser [-h] [-f FAMILY] [-s SUBFAMILY] [-c CHARACTERIZED] [-v] {GH,GT,PL,CA,AA}
positional arguments:
{GH,GT,PL,CA,AA}
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-f FAMILY, --family FAMILY
-s SUBFAMILY, --subfamily SUBFAMILY
-c CHARACTERIZED, --characterized CHARACTERIZED
-v, --version show version
Extract all fasta sequences from family 43 of Glycoside Hydrolase subfamily 1
$ cazy-parser GH -f 43 -s 1
