Is there a way to get a FASTA file containing all the record in a local BLAST database.
I've created a local database using makeblastdb with a fasta file, but was wondering if there is any way to reverse this process?
Thanks!

I found the corresponding fastacmd in blast+, it is blastdbcmd.
blastdbcmd -db database -entry all -out database.fasta
Use fastacmd to generate a single fasta file from an existing BLAST database
You can use the following arguments along with it:
-d BLAST database (the default is "nr")
-D 1 (dump the database in fasta format)
-o filename for the output
Example: fastacmd -d cdna -D 1 -o seq.fasta

fastacmd in not included in the latest blast+, is there a new command for this? I tried to search the blast+ document but cannot find it.
