BS_CodonJuggler.pl

VERSION

Version 2.10

DESCRIPTION

  This utility switches any one codon to any other. By default, it will not make
    any change to a gene that will cause a translation change in an overlapping
    gene; this behavior can be overridden with the -D and -V flags, which will
    allow the utility to make nonsynonymous changes to ORFs marked dubious and
    verified, respectively.

	If a stop codon is changed to a different stop codon, the change will be
    marked "stop_retained_variant". Otherwise synonymous changes are marked
    "synonymous_codon". If a stop is changed to a non stop, it is a "stop_lost".
    If a non stop is changed to a stop it is "stop_gained"; any other change is
    a "non_synonymous_codon".

USAGE

Required arguments:

-C,  --CHROMOSOME : The chromosome to be modified
-E,  --EDITOR : The person responsible for the edits
-M,  --MEMO   : Justification for the edits
-F,  --FROM   : The codon to be replaced
-T,  --TO     : The codon to be introduced

Optional arguments:

--ITERATE : [genome, chromosome (def)] Which version number to increment?
-STA, --STARTPOS : The first base for editing;
-STO, --STOPPOS  : The last base for editing;
-D,   --DUBWHACK : Allow nonsynonymous changes to dubious ORFs on behalf of
                   non dubious ORFs
-V,   --VERWHACK : Allow nonsynonymous changes to verified ORFs on behalf of
                   non dubious ORFs
-A,   --ALLWHACK : Allow even nonsynonymous changes to all ORFs
-O,   --OUTPUT   : [html, txt (def)] Format of reporting and output.
-h,   --help : Display this message
