Description
tcode is a command line program from EMBOSS (“the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite”). It is
part of the "Nucleic:Gene finding" command group(s).
Name
tcode - Identify protein-coding regions using Fickett TESTCODE statistic
Options
Inputsection-sequenceseqall-datafiledatafile
The default data file is Etcode.dat and contains coding probabilities for each base. The
probabilities are for both positional and compositional information. Default value: Etcode.dat
Requiredsection-windowinteger
This is the number of nucleotide bases over which the TESTCODE statistic will be performed each time.
The window will then slide along the sequence, covering the same number of bases each time. Default
value: 200
Advancedsection-stepinteger
The selected window will, by default, slide along the nucleotide sequence by three bases at a time,
retaining the frame (although the algorithm is not frame sensitive). This may be altered to increase
or decrease the increment of the slide. Default value: 3
Outputsection-plottoggle
On selection a graph of the sequence (X axis) plotted against the coding score (Y axis) will be
displayed. Sequence above the green line is coding, that below the red line is non-coding. Default
value: N
