Question 1

Explain the program: Count the number of amino acid in the protein file

Answer 1

• This Python program analyzes a protein sequence from a FASTA file.
• It preprocesses the sequence by removing headers and whitespaces, treats each amino acid as a token, and calculates the frequency of each token using a dictionary.
• Finally, it calculates and displays both the count and percentage of each amino acid in the sequence.
• The results include the total sequence and a breakdown of amino acid requencies.
