How can I read this fasta file ?

Hi,

I downloaded a fasta file generated with sixgill software, but I cannot open it normally. So I want to ask about the opening method.

fasta file:
sixgill_glacial_subE.fasta.zip

The .zip extension indicates that the file is zipped. You need to unzip it before you can use it. If you're on Windows, here are instructions.

Sorry I did not describe the attachment clearly. Because github does not support uploading files in fasta format, I compressed it first.
The fasta file is garbled after opening, so ask how to read the file correctly.

Thank you, I have been able to read the file correctly.
