I realize function write FASTA expects a list with two items, respectively, 
description and sequence.
However, just passing a list won't work (please, see code at the bottom of this 
message)
I saw there is the helper function CharacterToFASTArecords(x) that presumably 
generates the right input  data format.
It would b very useful to get some example of CharacterToFASTArecords(x) usage.
The on-line documentation reads:
"For CharacterToFASTArecords, the (possibly named) character vector to be 
converted to a list of FASTA records as one returned by readFASTA"
Since I have description and sequnce in separate variables ... I do not know 
how to use it.


      zz <- file (filname,"w")
           write(miRNA.rec, zz, append = FALSE)
           write(miRNA.seq,zz, append = TRUE)
#
       geneDesc <- paste (">",gene.id, "|", 
gene.map[i,"ensembl_transcript_id"], sep="")
          geneSeq <-  gene.seq[i,"3utr"]
          gene.string <- list(desc=geneDesc, seq=geneSeq)
          writeFASTA (gene.string, zz)

Thank you in advance for your help.
