_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Internal function that will standardise the input of the many
     different form of sequences that can be used in Bioconductor.

_U_s_a_g_e:

         readGeneInput(gene, genename=NULL)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

    gene: 

genename: 

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     This function is not meant to be run directly by the user. It will
     take a number of genes either as a vector  of characters, a path
     to a FASTA format file, as a vector of DNAstrings or as a
     readFASTA format. It will then output  them in FASTA format for
     use with other functions. Optional variable genename forces a new
     name.

     The primary objective of this function is to make the sequence
     input simpler for other functions.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     A list of all sequences and their names, in exactly the same
     format as obtained with the readFASTA function of the Biostrings
     package.
