skbio.sequence.RNA.read¶

classmethod RNA.read(file, format=None, **kwargs)[source]¶

Create a new RNA instance from a file.

This is a convenience method for skbio.io.registry.read(). For more information about the I/O system in scikit-bio, please see skbio.io.

Supported file formats include:

'genbank' (skbio.io.format.genbank)
'fastq' (skbio.io.format.fastq)
'qseq' (skbio.io.format.qseq)
'fasta' (skbio.io.format.fasta)

Parameters:

Parameters:	file : openable (filepath, URL, filehandle, etc.) The location to read the given format. Something that is understood by `skbio.io.util.open()`. Filehandles are not automatically closed, it is the responsibility of the caller. format : str, optional The format must be a format name with a reader for `RNA`. If a format is not provided or is None, it will attempt to guess the format. kwargs : dict, optional Keyword arguments passed to `skbio.io.registry.read()` and the file format reader for `RNA`.
Returns:	RNA A new instance.
