DESCRIPTION
seqnr is a command line program from EMBOSS ("the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite"). It is part of the "Utils:Database
creation" command group(s).
OPTIONS
Input section
-dhfinpath dirlist
This option specifies the location of DHF files (domain hits files) (input). A 'domain hits file' contains database hits (sequences)
with domain classification information, in the DHF format (FASTA or EMBL-like). The hits are relatives to a SCOP or CATH family and are
found from a search of a sequence database. Files containing hits retrieved by PSIBLAST are generated by using SEQSEARCH. Default
value: ./
-dosing toggle
This option specifies whether to use singlet sequences (e.g. DHF files) to filter input. Optionally, up to two further directories of
sequences may be read: these are considered in the redundancy calculation but never appear in the output files. Default value: Y
-singletsdir directory
This option specifies the location of singlet filter sequences (e.g. DHF files) (input). A 'domain hits file' contains database hits
(sequences) with domain classification information, in the DHF format (FASTA or EMBL-like). The hits are relatives to a SCOP or CATH
family and are found from a search of a sequence database. Files containing hits retrieved by PSIBLAST are generated by using
SEQSEARCH. Default value: ./
-dosets toggle
This option specifies whether to use sets of sequences (e.g. DHF files) to filter input. Optionally, up to two further directories of
sequences may be read: these are considered in the redundancy calculation but never appear in the output files. Default value: Y
-insetsdir directory
This option specifies location of sets of filter sequences (e.g. DAF files) (input). A 'domain alignment file' contains a sequence
alignment of domains belonging to the same SCOP or CATH family. The file is in clustal format annotated with domain family
classification information. The files generated by using SCOPALIGN will contain a structure-based sequence alignment of domains of
known structure only. Such alignments can be extended with sequence relatives (of unknown structure) by using SEQALIGN. Default value:
./
-matrix matrixf
This option specifies the residue substitution matrix that is used for sequence comparison. Default value: EBLOSUM62
Required section
-mode list
This option specifies whether to remove redundancy at a single threshold % sequence similarity or remove redundancy outside a range of
acceptable threshold % similarity. All permutations of pair-wise sequence alignments are calculated for each set of input sequences in
turn using the EMBOSS implementation of the Needleman and Wunsch global alignment algorithm. Redundant sequences are removed in one of
two modes as follows: (i) If a pair of proteins achieve greater than a threshold percentage sequence similarity (specified by the user)
the shortest sequence is discarded. (ii) If a pair of proteins have a percentage sequence similarity that lies outside an acceptable
range (specified by the user) the shortest sequence is discarded. Default value: 1
-thresh float
This option specifies the % sequence identity redundancy threshold. The % sequence identity redundancy threshold determines the
redundancy calculation. If a pair of proteins achieve greater than this threshold the shortest sequence is discarded. Default value:
95.0
-threshlow float
This option specifies the % sequence identity redundancy threshold (lower limit). The % sequence identity redundancy threshold
determines the redundancy calculation. If a pair of proteins have a percentage sequence similarity that lies outside an acceptable
range the shortest sequence is discarded. Default value: 30.0
-threshup float
This option specifies the % sequence identity redundancy threshold (upper limit). The % sequence identity redundancy threshold
determines the redundancy calculation. If a pair of proteins have a percentage sequence similarity that lies outside an acceptable
range the shortest sequence is discarded. Default value: 90.0
Additional section
-gapopen float
This option specifies the gap insertion penalty. The gap insertion penalty is the score taken away when a gap is created. The best
value depends on the choice of comparison matrix. The default value assumes you are using the EBLOSUM62 matrix for protein sequences,
and the EDNAFULL matrix for nucleotide sequences. Default value: 10
-gapextend float
This option specifies the gap extension penalty. The gap extension, penalty is added to the standard gap penalty for each base or
residue in the gap. This is how long gaps are penalized. Usually you will expect a few long gaps rather than many short gaps, so the
gap extension penalty should be lower than the gap penalty. Default value: 0.5
Output section
-dhfoutdir outdir
This option specifies the location of DHF files (domain hits files) of non-redundant sequences (output). A 'domain hits file' contains
database hits (sequences) with domain classification information, in the DHF format (FASTA or EMBL-like). The hits are relatives to a
SCOP or CATH family and are found from a search of a sequence database. Files containing hits retrieved by PSIBLAST are generated by
using SEQSEARCH. Default value: ./
-dored toggle
This option specifies whether to retain redundant sequences. If this option is set a DHF file (domain hits file) of redundant sequences
is written. Default value: N
-redoutdir outdir
This option specifies the location of DHF files (domain hits files) of redundant sequences (output). A 'domain hits file' contains
database hits (sequences) with domain classification information, in the DHF format (FASTA or EMBL-like). The hits are relatives to a
SCOP or CATH family and are found from a search of a sequence database. Files containing hits retrieved by PSIBLAST are generated by
using SEQSEARCH. Default value: ./
-logfile outfile
This option specifies the name of SEQNR log file (output). The log file contains messages about any errors arising while SEQNR ran.
Default value: seqnr.log
