SYNOPSIS

AnalyzeSequenceFilesData.pl SequenceFile(s) AlignmentFile(s)...

AnalyzeSequenceFilesData.pl [-h, --help] [-i, --IgnoreGaps yes | no] [-m, --mode PercentIdentityMatrix | ResidueFrequencyAnalysis | All] [--outdelim comma | tab | semicolon] [-o, --overwrite] [-p, --precision number] [-q, --quote yes | no] [--ReferenceSequence SequenceID | UseFirstSequenceID] [--region ''StartResNum, EndResNum, [StartResNum, EndResNum...]'' | UseCompleteSequence] [--RegionResiduesMode AminoAcids | NucleicAcids | None] [-w, --WorkingDir dirname] SequenceFile(s) AlignmentFile(s)...

DESCRIPTION

Analyze SequenceFile(s) and AlignmentFile(s) data: calculate pairwise percent identity matrix or calculate percent occurrence of various residues in specified sequence regions. All the sequences in the input file must have the same sequence lengths; otherwise, the sequence file is ignored.

The file names are separated by spaces. All the sequence files in a current directory can be specified by *.aln, *.msf, *.fasta, *.fta, *.pir or any other supported formats; additionally, DirName corresponds to all the sequence files in the current directory with any of the supported file extension: .aln, .msf, .fasta, .fta, and .pir.

Supported sequence formats are: ALN/CLustalW, GCG/MSF, PILEUP/MSF, Pearson/FASTA, and NBRF/PIR. Instead of using file extensions, file formats are detected by parsing the contents of SequenceFile(s) and AlignmentFile(s).

OPTIONS

-h, --help

Print this help message

-i, --IgnoreGaps yes | no

Ignore gaps during calculation of sequence lengths and specification of regions during residue frequency analysis. Possible values: yes or no. Default value: yes.

-m, --mode PercentIdentityMatrix | ResidueFrequencyAnalysis | All

Specify how to analyze data in sequence files: calculate percent identity matrix or calculate frequency of occurrence of residues in specific regions. During ResidueFrequencyAnalysis value of -m, --mode option, output files are generated for both the residue count and percent residue count. Possible values: PercentIdentityMatrix, ResidueFrequencyAnalysis, or All. Default value: PercentIdentityMatrix

--outdelim comma | tab | semicolon

Output text file delimiter. Possible values: comma, tab, or semicolon Default value: comma

-o, --overwrite

Overwrite existing files

-p, --precision number

Precision of calculated values in the output file. Default: up to 2 decimal places. Valid values: positive integers.

-q, --quote yes | no

Put quotes around column values in output text file. Possible values: yes or no. Default value: yes

--ReferenceSequence SequenceID | UseFirstSequenceID

Specify reference sequence ID to identify regions for performing ResidueFrequencyAnalysis specified using -m, --mode option. Default: UseFirstSequenceID

--region StartResNum,EndResNum,[StartResNum,EndResNum...] | UseCompleteSequence

Specify how to perform frequency of occurrence analysis for residues: use specific regions indicated by starting and ending residue numbers in reference sequence or use the whole reference sequence as one region. Default: UseCompleteSequence

Based on the value of -i, --IgnoreGaps option, specified residue numbers StartResNum,EndResNum correspond to the positions in the reference sequence without gaps or with gaps.

For residue numbers corresponding to the reference sequence including gaps, percent occurrence of various residues corresponding to gap position in reference sequence is also calculated.

--RegionResiduesMode AminoAcids | NucleicAcids | None

Specify how to process residues in the regions specified using --region option during ResidueFrequencyAnalysis calculation: categorize residues as amino acids, nucleic acids, or simply ignore residue category during the calculation. Possible values: AminoAcids, NucleicAcids or None. Default value: None

For AminoAcids or NucleicAcids values of --RegionResiduesMode option, all the standard amino acids or nucleic acids are listed in the output file for each region; Any gaps and other non standard residues are added to the list as encountered.

For None value of --RegionResiduesMode option, no assumption is made about type of residues. Residue and gaps are added to the list as encountered.

-r, --root rootname

New sequence file name is generated using the root: <Root><Mode>.<Ext> and <Root><Mode><RegionNum>.<Ext>. Default new file name: <SequenceFileName><Mode>.<Ext> for PercentIdentityMatrix value m, --mode option and <SequenceFileName><Mode><RegionNum>.<Ext> for ResidueFrequencyAnalysis. The csv, and tsv <Ext> values are used for comma/semicolon, and tab delimited text files respectively. This option is ignored for multiple input files.

-w --WorkingDir text

Location of working directory. Default: current directory

EXAMPLES
