readHmmer {micropan}R Documentation

Reading results from a HMMER3 scan

Description

Reading a text file produced by hmmerScan.

Usage

readHmmer(hmmer.file, e.value = 1, use.acc = TRUE)

Arguments

hmmer.file

The name of a hmmerScan result file.

e.value

Numeric threshold, hits with E-value above this are ignored (default is 1.0).

use.acc

Logical indicating if accession numbers should be used to identify the hits.

Details

The function reads a text file produced by hmmerScan. By specifying a smaller ‘⁠e.value⁠’ you filter out poorer hits, and fewer results are returned. The option ‘⁠use.acc⁠’ should be turned off (FALSE) if you scan against your own database where accession numbers are lacking.

Value

The results are returned in a ‘⁠tibble⁠’ with columns ‘⁠Query⁠’, ‘⁠Hit⁠’, ‘⁠Evalue⁠’, ‘⁠Score⁠’, ‘⁠Start⁠’, ‘⁠Stop⁠’ and ‘⁠Description⁠’. ‘⁠Query⁠’ is the tag identifying each query sequence. ‘⁠Hit⁠’ is the name or accession number for a pHMM in the database describing patterns. The ‘⁠Evalue⁠’ is the ‘⁠ievalue⁠’ in the HMMER3 terminology. The ‘⁠Score⁠’ is the HMMER3 score for the match between ‘⁠Query⁠’ and ‘⁠Hit⁠’. The ‘⁠Start⁠’ and ‘⁠Stop⁠’ are the positions within the ‘⁠Query⁠’ where the ‘⁠Hit⁠’ (pattern) starts and stops. ‘⁠Description⁠’ is the description of the ‘⁠Hit⁠’. There is one line for each hit.
