Hello, I'm having difficulty using artemis with certain files from NCBI. I looked at the documentation and the mailing list archives and couldn't find anything that looked like it might address my issue.

Here is an example file that illustrates my problem:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/viewer.fcgi?? db=nucleotide&val=AY178864
a chloroplast genome from Adiantum capillus-veneris.

The file seems to load correctly in Artemis v8. However, if I try to export or view the peptide sequence of some certain CDS their sequences doesn't seem correct. For instance, in the example file I selected the ndhB CDS in artemis, then "View Amino Acids Of Selection as FASTA". This is the incorrect sequence that it displays:

>ndhB spans the LSC and IR with the intron across t - 389: 150129 MW: 54568.566

However, the amino acid sequence actually embedded in the feature table looks like this:

as you can see they are clearly different, with the first even having a "plus" sign embedded in it. If anyone could give any insight into this problem I would appreciate it.


I'm not certain if it is related or not, but the Refseq version of the same genome: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/viewer.fcgi?? db=nucleotide&val=NC_004766 does not even open correctly in Artemis v8. The raw sequences seems to load, but no features.



Thanks in advance for your help,
