modify name field from genbank file

Question

[Maria]

Hi everyone!

I have a genbank file from GATU annotation, and I am trying to change the 'gene' name field from the one that appears in the 'product' name field. I've created a .bed file from the genbank file with the coordinates and product names, but I don't know how to transfer that information to the genbank file, concretely to the 'gene' field. I'll glady take any advice on this. Thanks

GenBank files are plain text. Simply open in any text editor and change the name(s) directly.
