The sim4 results are specialised types of SeqFeatures, meaning you can add them to AnnSeq objects fine, and manipulate them in the "normal" seqfeature manner. The sim4 Exon objects are Bio::SeqFeature::FeaturePair inherited objects. The $esthit = $exon-E<gt>est_hit() is the alignment as a feature on the matching object (normally, an EST), in which the start/end points are where the hit lies. To make this module work sensibly you need to run sim4 genomic.fasta est.database.fasta or sim4 est.fasta genomic.database.fasta To get the sequence identifiers recorded for the first sequence, too, use A=4 as output option for sim4. One fiddle here is that there are only two real possibilities to the matching criteria: either one sequence needs reversing or not. Because of this, it is impossible to tell whether the match is in the forward or reverse strand of the genomic DNA. We solve this here by assuming that the genomic DNA is always forward. As a consequence, the strand attribute of the matching EST is unknown, and the strand attribute of the genomic DNA (i.e., the Exon object) will reflect the direction of the hit. See the documentation of parse_next_alignment() for abilities of the parser to deal with the different output format options of sim4. =head1 FEEDBACK =head2 Mailing Lists User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules.

Internal methods are usually preceded with a _ =cut # Let the code begin... package Bio::Tools::Sim4::Results; use vars qw(@ISA); use strict; # Object preamble - inherits from Bio::Root::Object use File::Basename; use Bio::Root::Root; use Bio::Tools::AnalysisResult; use Bio::Tools::Sim4::Exon; @ISA = qw(Bio::Tools::AnalysisResult); sub _initialize_state { my($self,@args) = @_; # call the inherited method first my $make = $self->SUPER::_initialize_state(@args); my ($est_is_first) = $self->_rearrange([qw(ESTFIRST)], @args); delete($self->{'_est_is_first'}); $self->{'_est_is_first'} = $est_is_first if(defined($est_is_first)); $self->analysis_method("Sim4"); } =head2 analysis_method Usage : $sim4->analysis_method(); Purpose : Inherited method. Overridden to ensure that the name matches /sim4/i. Returns : String Argument : n/a =cut #------------- sub analysis_method { #------------- my ($self, $method) = @_; if($method && ($method !~ /sim4/i)) { $self->throw("method $method not supported in " . ref($self)); } return $self->SUPER::analysis_method($method); } =head2 parse_next_alignment Title : parse_next_alignment Usage : @exons = $sim4_result->parse_next_alignment; foreach $exon (@exons) { # do something } Function: Parses the next alignment of the Sim4 result file and returns the found exons as an array of Bio::Tools::Sim4::Exon objects. Call this method repeatedly until an empty array is returned to get the results for all alignments. The $exon->seq_id() attribute will be set to the identifier of the respective sequence for both sequences if A=4 was used in the sim4 run, and otherwise for the second sequence only. If the output does not contain the identifier, the filename stripped of path and extension is used instead. In addition, the full filename will be recorded for both features ($exon inherits off Bio::SeqFeature::SimilarityPair) as tag 'filename'. The length is accessible via the seqlength() attribute of $exon->query() and $exon->est_hit(). Note that this method is capable of dealing with outputs generated with format 0,1,3, and 4 (via the A=n option to sim4). It automatically determines which of the two sequences has been reversed, and adjusts the coordinates for that sequence. It will also detect whether the EST sequence(s) were given as first or as second file to sim4, unless this has been specified at creation time of the object. Example : Returns : An array of Bio::Tools::Sim4::Exon objects Args : =cut sub parse_next_alignment { my ($self) = @_; my @exons = (); my %seq1props = (); my %seq2props = (); # we refer to the properties of each seq by reference my ($estseq, $genomseq, $to_reverse); my $started = 0; my $hit_direction = 1; my $output_fmt = 3; # same as 0 and 1 (we cannot deal with A=2 produced # output yet) while(defined($_ = $self->_readline())) { #chomp(); # # bascially, each sim4 'hit' starts with seq1... # /^seq1/ && do { if($started) { $self->_pushback($_); last; } $started = 1; # filename and length of seq 1 /^seq1\s+=\s+(\S+)\,\s+(\d+)/ || $self->throw("Sim4 parsing error on seq1 [$_] line.

The container is itself a Bio::SeqFeature::Generic object, with the Bio::Tools::Sim4::Exon objects as sub features. Start, end, and strand of the container will represent the total region covered by the exons of this set. See the documentation of parse_next_alignment() for further reference about parsing and how the information is stored. Example : Returns : An Bio::SeqFeature::Generic object holding Bio::Tools::Sim4::Exon objects as sub features. Args : =cut sub next_exonset { my $self = shift; my $exonset; # get the next array of exons my @exons = $self->parse_next_alignment(); return if($#exons < 0); # create the container of exons as a feature object itself, with the # data of the first exon for initialization $exonset = Bio::SeqFeature::Generic->new('-start' => $exons[0]->start(), '-end' => $exons[0]->end(), '-strand' => $exons[0]->strand(), '-primary' => "ExonSet"); $exonset->source_tag($exons[0]->source_tag()); $exonset->seq_id($exons[0]->seq_id()); # now add all exons as sub features, with enabling EXPANsion of the region # covered in total foreach my $exon (@exons) { $exonset->add_sub_SeqFeature($exon, 'EXPAND'); } return $exonset; } =head2 next_feature Title : next_feature Usage : while($exonset = $sim4->next_feature()) { # do something } Function: Does the same as L<next_exonset()>. See there for documentation of the functionality. Call this method repeatedly until FALSE is returned. The returned object is actually a SeqFeatureI implementing object. This method is required for classes implementing the SeqAnalysisParserI interface, and is merely an alias for next_exonset() at present. Example : Returns : A Bio::SeqFeature::Generic object. Args : =cut sub next_feature { my ($self,@args) = @_; # even though next_exonset doesn't expect any args (and this method # does neither), we pass on args in order to be prepared if this changes # ever return $self->next_exonset(@args); } 1;
