NAME

       flanks - finding flanking sequences for a variant in a sequence position

SYNOPSIS

	 flanks --position POS [-p POS ...]  [--flanklen INT]
		accession | filename

DESCRIPTION

       This script allows you to extract a subsequence around a region of interest from an existing sequence. The output if fasta formatted
       sequence entry where the header line contains additional information about the location.

OPTIONS

       The script takes one unnamed argument which be either a file name in the local file system or a nucleotide sequence accession number.

	 -p	    Position uses simple nucleotide sequence feature table
	 --position notation to define the region of interest, typically a
		    SNP or microsatellite repeat around which the flanks are
		    defined.

		    There can be more than one position option or you can
		    give a comma separated list to one position option.

		    The format of a position is:

			[id:] int | range | in-between [-]

		    The optional id is the name you want to call the new
		    sequence. If it not given in joins running number to the
		    entry name with an underscore.

		    The position is either a point (e.g. 234), a range (e.g
		    250..300) or insertion point between nucleotides
		    (e.g. 234^235)

		    If the position is not completely within the source
		    sequence the output sequence will be truncated and it
		    will print a warning.

		    The optional hyphen [-] at the end of the position
		    indicates that that you want the retrieved sequence to be
		    in the opposite strand.

	 -f	    Defaults to 100. This is the length of the nucleotides
	 --flanklen sequence retrieved on both sides of the given position.

		    If the source file does not contain

OUTPUT FORMAT

       The output is a fasta formatted entry where the description file contains tag=value pairs for information about where in the original
       sequence the subsequence was taken.

       The ID of the fasta entry is the name given at the command line joined by hyphen to the filename or accesion of the source sequence. If no
       id is given a series of consequtive integers is used.

       The tag=value pairs are:

       oripos=int
	  position in the source file

       strand=1|-1
	  strand of the sequence compared to the source sequence

       allelepos=int
	  position of the region of interest in the current entry.  The tag is the same as used by dbSNP@NCBI

       The sequence highlights the allele variant position by showing it in upper case and rest of the sequence in lower case characters.

EXAMPLE

	 % flanks ~/seq/ar.embl

	 >1_/HOME/HEIKKI/SEQ/AR.EMBL oripos=100 strand=1 allelepos=100

	 acagactgtgagcctagcagggcagatcttgtccaccgtgtgtcttcttctgcacgagac
	 tttgaggctgtcagagcgct

TODO

       The input files are assumed to be in EMBL format and the sequences are retrieved only from the EMB database. Make this more generic and use
       the registry.

Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance(3pm)		User Contributed Perl Documentation		Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance(3pm)

NAME

       Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance - Abstracts the notion of a member      of an ordered list of markers. Each marker is a certain
       distance      from the one in the ordered list before it.

SYNOPSIS

	   use Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance;
	       # the first marker in the sequence
	   my $position = Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance->new(-positions => 1,
			       -distance => 22.3 );
	       # the second marker in the sequence, 15.6 units from the fist one
	   my $position2 = Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance->new(-positions => 2,
			       -distance => 15.6 );
	       # the third marker in the sequence, coincidental with the second
	       # marker
	   my $position3 = Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance->new(-positions => 3,
			       -distance => 0 );

DESCRIPTION

       This object is an implementation of the PositionI interface and the Position object handles the specific values of a position.
       OrderedPositionWithDistance is intended to be slightly more specific then Position but only specific enough for a parser from the MarkerIO
       subsystem to create and then pass to a client application to bless into the proper type. For an example of how this is intended to work,
       see the Mapmaker.pm.

       No units are assumed here - units are handled by context of which Map a position is placed in.

       Se Bio::Map::Position for additional information.

APPENDIX

       The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods.  Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

   new
	Title	: new
	Usage	: my $obj = Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance->new();
	Function: Builds a new Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance object
	Returns : Bio::Map::OrderedPositionWithDistance
	Args	: -positions  - Should be a single value representing the order
	       of this marker within the list of markers
	       -distance - The distance this marker is from the marker before it.
		       0 reflects coincidentality.

   distance($new_distance)
	Title	: distance($new_distance)
	Usage	: $position->distance(new_distance) _or_
	       $position->distance()
	Function: get/set the distance of this position from the previous marker
	Returns : A scalar representing the current distance for this position.
	Args	: If $new_distance is provided the distance of this Position will
	       be set to $new_distance
