Hi all,

I am trying to parse through a GenBank file and I keep getting this weird error :

parseGenBank(file)

Error in .Call2("new_XString_from_CHARACTER", class(x0), string, start,  : 
  key 79 (char 'O') not in lookup table

traceback()

       width, lkup, PACKAGE = "Biostrings")

It seems to me like it is not recognizing the letter "O". Unsure how to fix this.

Thank you, Ashley
