NAME

Bio::Grep::Backends::GUUGle - GUUGle back-end

SYNOPSIS

 use Bio::Grep::Backends::GUUGle;

 # construct the GUUGle back-end	
 my $sbe = Bio::Grep::Backends::GUUGle->new();

 $sbe->settings->tmppath('tmp');
 $sbe->settings->datapath('data');
 
 # generate a GUUGle Bio::Grep database. you have to do this only once.
 # GUUGle does not create a persistent index right now.
 # This function generates an fast index for $sbe->get_sequences
 # and files with a description and the alphabet (only DNA/RNA allowed)
 $sbe->generate_database_out_of_fastafile('ATH1.cdna', 
    'AGI Transcripts (- introns, + UTRs)');

 my %local_dbs_description = $sbe->get_databases();
 my @local_dbs = sort keys %local_dbs_description;

 # take first available database in our test
 $sbe->settings->database($local_dbs[0]);

 my $seq = 'UGAACAGAAAGCUCAUGAGCC'; 

 # search for the reverse complement
 $sbe->settings->query($seq);
 $sbe->settings->reverse_complement(1);
 
 # display 5 bases upstream and downstream of the match
 $sbe->settings->upstream(5);
 $sbe->settings->downstream(5);
 
 $sbe->search();

 # output all informations we have!
 while ( my $res = $sbe->next_res ) {
    print $res->sequence->id . "\n";
    print $res->mark_subject_uppercase() . "\n";
    print $res->alignment_string() . "\n\n";
 }
  

DESCRIPTION

Bio::Grep::Backends::GUUGle searches for a query in a GUUGle suffix array.

NOTE 1: GUUGle always searches for the reverse complement. If you specify a query file, Bio::Grep throws an exception if reverse_complement is not set.

NOTE 2: GUUGle only allows search for exact matches. It counts GU as no mismatch.

METHODS

See Bio::Grep::Backends::BackendI for other methods.

Bio::Grep::Backends::GUUGle->new()
 This function constructs a GUUGle back-end object

my $sbe = Bio::Grep::Backends::GUUGle->new();
$sbe->available_sort_modes()

Returns all available sort modes as hash. keys are sort modes, values a short description.

$sbe->sort('ga');

Available sortmodes in GUUGle:

    ga  : 'ascending order of dG'
    gd  : 'descending order of dG'

Note that 'ga' and 'gd' require that search results have dG set. Bio::Grep::RNA ships with filters for free energy calculation. Also note that these two sort options require that we load all results in memory.

DIAGNOSTICS

See Bio::Grep::Backends::BackendI for other diagnostics.

Bio::Root::SystemException
  • It was not possible to run GUUGle in function search.

Bio::Root::BadParameter
GUUGle searches only for the reverse complement

You have specified a query_file and reverse_complement is not set.

settings->query_length not set. See -d flag...

You have specified a query_file and forgot to set query_length.
