Hi bingalee,
I strongly guess you want to save each of the "sequence" starting from XLOC_.. till the space line.
If so,
the following can give you a head up: It saves each "sequence", into a different named file. (am using only the OP data here .... Please) 

use warnings;
use strict;

my $fh;

while (<DATA>) {
    chomp;
    if (/(XLOC_\d+$)/) {
        open $fh, '>', "$1.txt" or die $!;
        print $fh $_, $/;
    }
    else {
        print $fh $_, $/;
    }
}

__DATA__
XLOC_000039
