How to find corresponding variant position in a bacteria where the variant was reported according to the E.coli numbering system?

Question

[eli_bayat]

Hello, I m working on variant detection in a bacteria. I know from literature that a mutation occurred on a gene in bacteria of interest at a position according to the E.coli numbering system. How can I convert this number to the mutation position in my bacteria. For example, if there is a mutation from G to C at position 1064 according to Ecoli numbering system, what position it translate to, in the bacteria?

I have seen suggestions such as alignment of the bacteria to Ecoli, but not sure if there is a better way to do this.

Any help appreciated

I have the same problem, can you give me the solution if you have it?

I ended up aligning the bacterial genome to E.coli genome and find the position in bacteria correspond to the reported position in E.coli. I used mafft for this.

Thanks, I will try the mafft tool for the alignement.
