Changing format using awk command

Question

[sp]

I am trying to convert tab limited "name-seq" format to ">name \n seq\n". I think I can use "awk" function will do the job, but need your help. Thanks for your help!

For example,

From;

CHP2_ABL1_1 ACGACAAGTGGGAGATGGAAC

CHP2_ABL1_2 TAACTAGTCAAGTACTTACCCACTGAAA

TO;

>CHP2_ABL1_1
ACGACAAGTGGGAGATGGAAC

>CHP2_ABL1_2
TAACTAGTCAAGTACTTACCCACTGAAA
