DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the stranslate command.

       stranslate  is  a program that creates a file of all possible protein ORFs, given an input

       -h     Help; show brief usage and version info.

       -m     Require ORFs to start with AUG/Met.

       -o <outfile>
              Save results in output file.

              Use the Tetrahymena/Oxytricha genetic code.

       --watson
              Only do the top strand (frames 0/1/2).

       --crick
              Only do the bottom strand (frames 3/4/5).

       with another program of the same name.
