FASTA Name Filter

After programmatically collecting a large array of sequences, you may want to remove some that were inadvertenly obtained. You can do this by filtering based on the occurence of one or more search terms to be found in the header of a FASTA file. In this program, simply select the FASTA file and provide comma-delimited search terms.

The webserver (Javascript) version below will look for partial matches and simply return the positive hits. The downloadable (Java) version has more options for matching, and will also save all discarded sequenced separately
