 FASTA format is a text-based format for representing either nucleic acid sequences or peptide sequences, in which base pairs or amino acids are represented using single-letter codes. The format also allows for sequence names and comments to precede the sequences. FASTA format is a text-based format for representing either nucleic acid sequences or peptide sequences, in which base pairs or amino acids are represented using single-letter codes.
