Aug 16, 2021 at 4:17 comment added cas You probably want to use perl instead of awk for this, specifically bioperl - it wouldn't surprise me if there was an existing library function to generate all possible permutations of a DNA sequence according to user-definable criteria/patterns (although I can't recall or find one right now). Also, while questions about processing DNA sequences are welcome here, U&L has a sister site specifically for bioinformatics questions.
Aug 15, 2021 at 19:43 comment added catchprj I have edited the original question. Hopefully it's a little clearer, though I fear it may be more confusing now!

Aug 15, 2021 at 18:48 comment added catchprj It wouldn't be a random sample, it would be every one of the options A,C,T,G at every 5th position. So, for example, if the original sequence were 10 characters long, you would end up with 16 output sequences (4 different options at position 5, combined with 4 options at position 10)
