Hello there, I'm a biologist and I'm trying to start using bioperl for bioinformatic purposese but I've never programmed. Could you suggest me something to read to start from 0 level?
In the meantime, I installed bioperl and I'm doing some little trials to get to know something: I would like to create a script that reads a series of NM_... codes (RefSeq for cDNA) and creates a multifasta file that contains all the genomic sequences of the related genes. I found this article: http://bio.perl.org/wiki/HOWTO:Getting_Genomic_Sequences I'm trying the part "Using the Perl API at ENSEMBL" But when I just paste it in a file and run it into perl, it says: > Can't locate Bio/EnsEMBL/DBSQL/DBAdaptor.pm in @INC (@INC contains: > /sw/lib/perl5/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.8.8 > /sw/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin > /Library/Perl/Updates/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level > /Library/Perl/Updates/5.8.8 > /System/Library/Perl/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level > /System/Library/Perl/5.8.8 /Library/Perl/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level > /Library/Perl/5.8.8 /Library/Perl > /Network/Library/Perl/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level > /Network/Library/Perl/5.8.8 /Network/Library/Perl > /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level > /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.8.8 /Library/Perl/5.8.6 /Library/Perl/5.8.1 .) > at getgenomseq line 7. > BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at getgenomseq line 7. > I thought I have to install the Ensembl API, and I did that, but it continues to give me the same error. What am I doing wrong? Thanks Emanuele
