you can simply substitute a number into the hash-value s/^>(\d+)/$lista2{$1}/

the following demonstration is safer because it is also catching missing hash entries

use strict; use warnings; my %lista2= ( 1 => "CAT00.3", 2 => "CAT43.1", 3 => "CAT40.3" ); while (<DATA>) { s/^>(\d+)/$lista2{$1} || die "unknown number $1"/e; print } __DATA__ >1 AACTCTGGGACAATGGCACACGGGAAACAGATAATGAACGATCAGCACAGGGAACTAGCG >2 AACTCTGGGACAATGGCACACGGGAAACAGATAATGAACGATCAGCACAGGGAACTAGCG >3 AACTCTGGGACAATGGCACACGGGAAACAGATAATGAACGATCAGCACAGGGAACTAGCG >4

update

just noticed, the s/^>(\d+)/$lista2{$1}/ variant will already warn you.

Use of uninitialized value within %lista2 in substitution iterator at hash_regex.pl line 14, <DATA> line 7.
