Hi Karen,

Mauve's GenBank parser is peculiarly picky about the format of the file's 
header. But the good thing is that once you figure out what is "off" about your 
file, you don't need to rerun the alignment -- since the sequence is unchanged, 
just overwrite the original gbk file with your edited one, and open the 
alignment in Mauve.

(1) I'm not sure what the issue with the RAST file is -- I just tested a couple 
of recent RAST files of mine, and their annotations load fine. If you cannot 
figure it out by comparing it to a working file, I'd be glad to take a look at 
your file if you want.

(2) Mauve pulls the display name from the first source Feature's /organism 
qualifier, and appends the /strain qualifier UNLESS that text already appears 
in the /organism text. It appears that /sub_strain, /plasmid, etc., are 
ignored, but editing /organism and/or /strain allows you to control the labels 
displayed in the alignments ...
For your specific case, you could just change /organism to "Klebsiella 
pneumoniae pKPoxa-48N1" (should be in double quotes).

Cheers,
Guy
