What exactly counts as a sequence?? Is it the lines underneath

GTM1_MOUSE etc.. etc..

or is it the whole entry? I am going to assume it is the whole entry. 

$file = "xyz";

if(!open(READ_FILE, "$file")){
    die "Cannot open file [$file]\n";
}

my $sequence = "";
while(my $line = <READ_FILE>){
    if($line =~ m/^G.*\(EC/){
        if($sequence){
            #write sequence here.
            print "seq: $sequence\n";
            $sequence = "";
        }
        $sequence .= $line;
        
        
    }else{
        $sequence .= $line;
    }
}
#write last sequence here
print "last: $sequence\n";

That regex is somewhat hardcoded, if you are nervous about it, you can always change it to look for the empty line. I sort of assumed that every sequence would start with

G<something>

and would have

(EC <more-stuff>
