Hey guys. I have about 500 DNA sequences, each one consists of an ID and sequence letters, and a line space between each sequence. I need to rearrange the sequences according to their ID number, in ascending order. The ID for every sequence is the ENSP00000xxxxx So if for example my original sequences file is:
>ENSP00000314624 GCACAATGGTAGAGGCAGATCATCC >ENSP00000347089 ATGGATTGCTGTGCCTCTCGAGGCT >ENSP00000301587 TGACCCACTTCCGTTACTTGCTGCG
then I would like it to be:
>ENSP00000301587 TGACCCACTTCCGTTACTTGCTGCG >ENSP00000314624 GCACAATGGTAGAGGCAGATCATCC >ENSP00000347089 ATGGATTGCTGTGCCTCTCGAGGCT
I would truly appreciate any suggestion.

Cheers,

uv
