Changes to EMBL-CDS flat file format
- Removal of CRC32 checksum from SQ lines. After this change the EMBL-CDS flat file SQ line will be identical to EMBL-Bank flat file SQ line.
- Removal of OX line. Please use /db_xref="taxon:" in the source feature instead as in EMBL-Bank flat files.
- Removal of /func_charaterized qualifier.
