get_fastastr is an API-only function which returns the one-letter amino acid sequence in FASTA format.

PyMOL API

print cmd.get_fastastr('all')

Known Issues

  • Due to a bug this function currently only works for selections from a single object (see #3466472)
  • The sequences of different chains are just concatenated and returned as a single sequence
