How to pull out string from field with brackets

[sr320]

I have a file, two fields, space delimited..

lcl|NW_011934501.1_cds_XP_011426503.1_1 [gene=LOC105317034]
lcl|NW_011934501.1_cds_XP_011434216.1_2 [gene=LOC105317034]
lcl|NW_011934501.1_cds_XP_011445785.1_3 [gene=LOC105338483]
lcl|NW_011934505.1_cds_XP_019917900.1_4 [gene=LOC105346508]
lcl|NW_011934507.1_cds_XP_011423156.1_5 [gene=LOC105322465]
lcl|NW_011934512.1_cds_XP_011426108.1_6 [gene=LOC105327114]

and want it to clean up LOCID so it looks like

lcl|NW_011934501.1_cds_XP_011426503.1_1 LOC105317034
lcl|NW_011934501.1_cds_XP_011434216.1_2 LOC105317034

I tried sed 's/[gene=//g' with both " and ' around what I want to replace, but the bracket seems to be an issue.

Using sed try escaping (\) the bracket.

That worked!

specifically sed 's/\[gene=//g' | sed 's/\]//g'
