Inputsection-dcfinfileinfile
This option specifies name of DCF file (domain classification file) (input). A 'domain classification
file' contains classification and other data for domains from SCOP or CATH, in DCF format
(EMBL-like). The files are generated by using SCOPPARSE and CATHPARSE. Domain sequence information
can be added to the file by using DOMAINSEQS.
-datafilematrixf
This option specifies the residue substitution matrix. This is used for sequence comparison. Default
value: EBLOSUM62
-retaintoggle
This option specifies whether to write redundant domains to a separate file. If this option is
selected, redundant domains are written to a separate output file. Default value: N
Requiredsection-nodelist
This option specifies the node for redundancy removal. Redundancy can be removed at any specified
node in the SCOP or CATH hierarchies. For example by selecting 'Class' entries belonging to the same
Class will be non-redundant. Default value: 1
-modelist
This option specifies whether to remove redundancy at a single threshold % sequence similarity or
remove redundancy outside a range of acceptable threshold % similarity. All permutations of pair-wise
sequence alignments are calculated for each domain family in turn using the EMBOSS implementation of
the Needleman and Wunsch global alignment algorithm. Redundant sequences are removed in one of two
modes as follows: (i) If a pair of proteins achieve greater than a threshold percentage sequence
similarity (specified by the user) the shortest sequence is discarded. (ii) If a pair of proteins
have a percentage sequence similarity that lies outside an acceptable range (specified by the user)
the shortest sequence is discarded. Default value: 1
-thresholdfloat
This option specifies the % sequence identity redundancy threshold, which determines the redundancy
calculation. If a pair of proteins achieve greater than this threshold the shortest sequence is
discarded. Default value: 95.0
-threshlowfloat
This option specifies the % sequence identity redundancy threshold, which determines the redundancy
calculation. If a pair of proteins have a percentage sequence similarity that lies outside an
acceptable range the shortest sequence is discarded. Default value: 30.0
-threshupfloat
This option specifies the % sequence identity redundancy threshold, which determines the redundancy
calculation. If a pair of proteins have a percentage sequence similarity that lies outside an
acceptable range the shortest sequence is discarded. Default value: 90.0
Additionalsection-gapopenfloat
This option specifies the gap insertion penalty. This is the score taken away when a gap is created.
The best value depends on the choice of comparison matrix. The default value assumes you are using
the EBLOSUM62 matrix for protein sequences, and the EDNAFULL matrix for nucleotide sequences. Default
value: 10
-gapextendfloat
This option specifies the gap extension penalty. This is added to the standard gap penalty for each
base or residue in the gap. This is how long gaps are penalized. Usually you will expect a few long
gaps rather than many short gaps, so the gap extension penalty should be lower than the gap penalty.
Default value: 0.5
AdvancedsectionOutputsection-dcfoutfileoutfile
This option specifies the name of non-redundant DCF file (domain classification file) (output). A
'domain classification file' contains classification and other data for domains from SCOP or CATH, in
DCF format (EMBL-like). The files are generated by using SCOPPARSE and CATHPARSE. Domain sequence
information can be added to the file by using DOMAINSEQS. Default value: test.scop
-redoutfileoutfile
This option specifies the name of DCF file (domain classification file) for redundant sequences
(output). A 'domain classification file' contains classification and other data for domains from SCOP
or CATH, in DCF format (EMBL-like). The files are generated by using SCOPPARSE and CATHPARSE. Domain
sequence information can be added to the file by using DOMAINSEQS.
-logfileoutfile
This option specifies the name of log file for the build. The log file contains messages about any
errors arising while domainnr ran. Default value: domainnr.log
