| Abstract: | The use of bioinformatics tools require different sequence formats at various instances. Every tool uses specific set of
formats for processing. Sequence in one format is often required in another format. Thus, there is a need for sequence
format conversion. A number of such tools are available in the public domain. Here, we describe BIOFFORC as a file format
converter. The tool is developed with a graphical user interface in PERL.Availability
