fastacmd retrieves FASTA formatted sequences from a blast database that was indexed using formatdb and formatted using the '-o' option.
An example fastacmd call would be:
/biolo/ncbi/bin/fastacmd -s UniRef90_P01892 -d /blast/uniref90
fastacmd is one of the programs distributed along with the old blastall program by the NCBI. The NCBI recommends that people start using the programs of the blast+ package instead. Having said that, most documentation currently available still refers to blastall and the programs distributed with it.
