Inputsection-dhfinpathdirlist
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: ./
-dosingtoggle
This option specifies whether to use singlet sequences (e.g. DHF files) to filter input. Optionally,
up to two further directories of sequences may be read: these are considered in the redundancy
calculation but never appear in the output files. Default value: Y
-singletsdirdirectory
This option specifies the location of singlet filter sequences (e.g. DHF 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: ./
-dosetstoggle
This option specifies whether to use sets of sequences (e.g. DHF files) to filter input. Optionally,
up to two further directories of sequences may be read: these are considered in the redundancy
calculation but never appear in the output files. Default value: Y
-insetsdirdirectory
This option specifies location of sets of filter sequences (e.g. DAF files) (input). 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: ./
-matrixmatrixf
This option specifies the residue substitution matrix that is used for sequence comparison. Default
value: EBLOSUM62
Requiredsection-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 set of input sequences 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
-threshfloat
This option specifies the % sequence identity redundancy threshold. The % sequence identity
redundancy threshold 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 (lower limit). The % sequence
identity redundancy threshold 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 (upper limit). The % sequence
identity redundancy threshold 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. The gap insertion penalty 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. The gap extension, penalty 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
Outputsection-dhfoutdiroutdir
This option specifies the location of DHF files (domain hits files) of non-redundant sequences
(output). 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: ./
-doredtoggle
This option specifies whether to retain redundant sequences. If this option is set a DHF file (domain
hits file) of redundant sequences is written. Default value: N
-redoutdiroutdir
This option specifies the location of DHF files (domain hits files) of redundant sequences (output).
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: ./
-logfileoutfile
This option specifies the name of SEQNR log file (output). The log file contains messages about any
errors arising while SEQNR ran. Default value: seqnr.log
