Another one, if the last character of the line isn't a ">", add the next line into the contents of the pattern space and delete the newline character:

Code:
sed -n '/[^>]/$/N;s/\n//p' file
With awk, if the last character of the line isn't a ">" print the line without a newline:

Code:
awk '!/>$/{printf("%s",$0);next}1' file
Regards
