Inputsection-modelist
This option specifies the mode of SEQALIGN operation. SEQALIGN takes as input a directory of either
i. single sequences, ii. set of sequences (unaligned or aligned, but typically aligned sequences
within a domain alignment file)). The user has to specify which. Default value: 1
-dhfinpathdirlist
This option specifies the location of sequences, e.g. DHF files (domain hits files) (input). SEQALIGN
takes as input a database of either i. single sequences, ii. sets of unaligned sequences or iii. sets
of aligned sequences, e.g. a domain alignment file. 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: ./
-dafinpathdirlist
This option specifies the location of sequences, e.g. DAF files (domain alignment files) (input).
SEQALIGN takes as input a database of either i. single sequences, ii. sets of unaligned sequences or
iii. sets of aligned sequences, e.g. a domain alignment file. 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: ./
-dhfindirdirectory
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: ./
Requiredsection-amodelist
This option specifies which alignment algorithm to use. Default value: 1
Additionalsection-forcetypeboolean
This option specifies whether to force minimal domain classification data to be written to the output
file in cases where singlet sequences were given as input file and no classification data was
available Default value: N
Outputsection-dafoutdiroutdir
This option specifies the location of DAF files (domain alignment files) (output). 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: ./
-logfileoutfile
This option specifies the name of log file for the build. The log file contains messages about any
errors arising while SEQALIGN ran. Default value: seqalign.log
