• -e Makes the line of code be executed instead of a script
• -n Forces your line to be called in a loop. Allows you to take lines from the diamond operator (or stdin)
• -p Forces your line to be called in a loop. Prints $_ at the end

• This counts the number of quotation marks in each line and prints it

  perl -ne '$cnt = tr/"//;print "$cnt\n"' inputFileName.txt

• Adds string to each line, followed by tab

  perl -pe 's/(.*)/string\t$1/' inFile > outFile

• Append a new line to each line

  perl -pe 's//\n/' all.sent.classOnly > all.sent.classOnly.sep

• Replace all occurrences of pattern1 (e.g. [0-9]) with pattern2

  perl -p -i.bak -w -e 's/pattern1/pattern2/g' inputFile

• Go through file and only print words that do not have any uppercase letters.

  perl -ne 'print unless m/[A-Z]/' allWords.txt > allWordsOnlyLowercase.txt

• Go through file, split line at each space and print words one per line.

  perl -ne 'print join("\n", split(/ /,$_));print("\n")' someText.txt > wordsPerLine.txt

• or in other words, delete every character that is not a letter, white space or line end (replace with nothing)

  perl -pne 's/[^a-zA-Z\s]*//g' text_withSpecial.txt > text_lettersOnly.txt

• perl -pne 'tr/[A-Z]/[a-z]/' textWithUpperCase.txt > textwithoutuppercase.txt;

• Print only the second column of the data when using tabular as a separator

  perl -ne '@F = split("\t", $_); print "$F[1]";' columnFileWithTabs.txt > justSecondColumn.txt

• One-Liner: Sort lines by their length

  perl -e 'print sort {length $a <=> length $b} <>' textFile

• One-Liner: Print second column, unless it contains a number

  perl">perl -lane 'print $F[1] unless $F[1] =~ m/[0-9]/' wordCounts.txt

Minimum qualification: MSc in any branch of life sciences

Applications are invited for the position of a Research Assistant in the Centre for Human Genetics, Bangalore.

The project involves identification of mutations in MPS (mucopolysaccharidosis) patients, and study of their predicted effects to understand how the mutations lead to disease.

Techniques used will be genomic DNA isolation, PCR, DNA sequencing and sequence analysis. Computational tools would also be used to analyse and interpret data.

Candidates may be assigned work in the ongoing project or in new ones.

The candidate who is selected and joins would acquire hands-on experience in research and the capability to conduct insightful research.

Candidates applying for the position should have an MSc in any branch of life sciences. Those with research experience in cell and molecular biology, and high NET/ GATE score would be preferred.

The successful applicant is expected to stay for at least one and a half years.
