I have results of differential expressed genes from a bacterial transcriptome generated through Deseq2.
The reference genome deposited in ENA (European Nucleotide Archive) is functionally annotated with GO terms.
Now I want to know if there is an specific functional category that is being activated in the test condition.
For this purpose, firstly I want to relate the locus_tag of the upregulated genes (I have a list of locus-tags) to the GO terms of the genome in embl file format.
Do you know a script that could perform this task? Or, at least a script that transform the embl file in a table that relates locus-tag and GO annotation.

I found a great tool for this purpose: Go retriever http://agbase.msstate.edu/cgi-bin/tools/goretriever_select.pl
It allows retrieving GO terms using as input Genbank acession numbers.
With these data I can utilize Bingo of Cytoscape for GO enrichment analysis.
