Dear group:
I have 50 thousand lists. My aim is to search a pattern in the alphabetical
strings (these are protein sequence strings).
MMSASRLAGTLIPAMAFLSCVRPESWEPC VEVVP
NITYQCMELNFYKIPDNLPFSTKNLDLSFNPLRHLGSYSFFSFPELQVLDLSRCEIQTIED
my aim is to find the list of string that has V*VVP.
myseq = 'MMSASRLAGTLIPAMAFLSCVRPESWEPC VEVVP
NITYQCMELNFYKIPDNLPFSTKNLDLSFNPLRHLGSYSFFSFPELQVLDLSRCEIQTIED'
if re.search('V*VVP',myseq):
print myseq
the problem with this is, I am also finding junk with just VVP or VP etc.
How can I strictly search for V*VVP only.
Thanks for help.
