 454 produces data in a binary sff format. Most assemblers (other than newbler) don't read sff directly. Instead they require fasta and fasta.qual data.

It can be fed with multiple sff files and produce a single fasta file. 454 produces data in a binary sff format. Most assemblers (other than newbler) don't read sff directly.
