 Title   : add_hsp
Usage : $hit->add_hsp($hsp)
Function: Add a HSP to the collection of HSPs for a Hit
Returns : number of HSPs in the Hit
Args : Bio::Search::HSP::HSPI object
algorithmcodeprevnextTop
 Title   : algorithm
Usage : $alg = $hit->algorithm();
Function: Gets the algorithm specification that was used to obtain the hit
For BLAST, the algorithm denotes what type of sequence was aligned
against what (BLASTN: dna-dna, BLASTP prt-prt, BLASTX translated
dna-prt, TBLASTN prt-translated dna, TBLASTX translated
dna-translated dna).
Returns : a scalar string
Args : [optional] scalar string to set the algorithm
ambiguous_alncodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $ambig_code = $hit_object->ambiguous_aln();
Purpose : Sets/Gets ambiguity code data member.
Example : (see usage)
Returns : String = 'q', 's', 'qs', '-'
: 'q' = query sequence contains overlapping sub-sequences
: while sbjct does not.
: 's' = sbjct sequence contains overlapping sub-sequences
: while query does not.
: 'qs' = query and sbjct sequence contains overlapping sub-sequences
: relative to each other.
: '-' = query and sbjct sequence do not contains multiple domains
: relative to each other OR both contain the same distribution
: of similar domains.
Argument : n/a
Throws : n/a
Status : Experimental
bitscodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $hit_object->bits();
Purpose : Gets the bit score of the best HSP for the current hit.
Example : $bits = $hit_object->bits();
Returns : Integer or undef if bit score is not set
Argument : n/a
Comments : For BLAST1, the non-bit score is listed in the summary line.
See Also : score()
descriptioncodeprevnextTop
 Title   : description
Usage : $desc = $hit->description();
Function: Retrieve the description for the hit
Returns : a scalar string
Args : [optional] scalar string to set the descrition
each_accession_numbercodeprevnextTop
 Title   : each_accession_number
Usage : @each_accession_number = $hit->each_accession_number();
Function: Get each accession number listed in the description of the hit.
If there are no alternatives, then only the primary accession will
be given
Returns : list of all accession numbers in the description
Args : none
endcodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $sbjct->end( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Gets the end coordinate for the query, sbjct, or both sequences
: in the BlastHit object. If there is more than one HSP, the largest end
: value of all HSPs is returned.
Example : $qend = $sbjct->end('query');
: $send = $sbjct->end('hit');
: ($qend, $send) = $sbjct->end();
Returns : scalar context: integer
: array context without args: list of two integers (queryEnd, sbjctEnd)
: Array context can be "induced" by providing an argument of 'list' or 'array'.
Argument : In scalar context: seq_type = 'query' or 'sbjct'
: (case insensitive). If not supplied, 'query' is used.
Throws : n/a
Comments : This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If there is more than one
: HSP and they have not already been tiled, they will be tiled first automatically..
: Remember that the start and end coordinates of all HSPs are
: normalized so that start < end. Strand information can be
: obtained by calling $hit->strand().
See Also : start(), range(), strand()
frac_aligned_hitcodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $hit_object->frac_aligned_hit();
Purpose : Get the fraction of the hit (sbjct) sequence which has been aligned
: across all HSPs (not including intervals between non-overlapping
: HSPs).
Example : $frac_alnq = $hit_object->frac_aligned_hit();
Returns : Float (2-decimal precision, e.g., 0.75).
Argument : n/a
Throws : n/a
Comments : If you need data for each HSP, use hsps() and then interate
: through the HSP objects.
: To compute the fraction aligned, the logical length of the sbjct
: sequence is used, meaning that for TBLAST[NX] reports, the
: full length of the sbjct sequence is converted into amino acids
: by dividing by 3. This is necessary because of the way
: the lengths of aligned sequences are computed.
: This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If they have not
: already been tiled, they will be tiled first automatically.
See Also : frac_aligned_query(), matches(), , logical_length(), length_aln(), Bio::Search::SearchUtils::tile_hsps()
frac_aligned_querycodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $hit_object->frac_aligned_query();
Purpose : Get the fraction of the query sequence which has been aligned
: across all HSPs (not including intervals between non-overlapping
: HSPs).
Example : $frac_alnq = $hit_object->frac_aligned_query();
Returns : Float (2-decimal precision, e.g., 0.75).
Argument : n/a
Throws : n/a
Comments : If you need data for each HSP, use hsps() and then interate
: through the HSP objects.
: To compute the fraction aligned, the logical length of the query
: sequence is used, meaning that for [T]BLASTX reports, the
: full length of the query sequence is converted into amino acids
: by dividing by 3. This is necessary because of the way
: the lengths of aligned sequences are computed.
: This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If they have not
: already been tiled, they will be tiled first automatically.

frac_aligned_sbjctcodeprevnextTop
Same as frac_aligned_hit()
frac_conservedcodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $hit_object->frac_conserved( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Get the overall fraction of conserved positions across all HSPs.
: The number refers to only the aligned regions and does not
: account for unaligned regions in between the HSPs, if any.
Example : $frac_cons = $hit_object->frac_conserved('hit');
Returns : Float (2-decimal precision, e.g., 0.75).
Argument : seq_type: 'query' | 'hit' or 'sbjct' | 'total'
: default = 'query' (but see comments below).
: ('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : n/a
Comments : Different versions of Blast report different values for the total
: length of the alignment. This is the number reported in the
: denominators in the stats section:
: "Positives = 34/120 Positives = 67/120".
: NCBI BLAST uses the total length of the alignment (with gaps)
: WU-BLAST uses the length of the query sequence (without gaps).
:
: Therefore, when called with an argument of 'total',
: this method will report different values depending on the
: version of BLAST used. Total does NOT take into account HSP
: tiling, so it should not be used.
:
: To get the fraction conserved among only the aligned residues,
: ignoring the gaps, call this method without an argument or
: with an argument of 'query' or 'hit'.
:
: If you need data for each HSP, use hsps() and then interate
: through the HSP objects.
: This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If they have not
: already been tiled, they will be tiled first automatically.

frac_identicalcodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $hit_object->frac_identical( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Get the overall fraction of identical positions across all HSPs.
: The number refers to only the aligned regions and does not
: account for unaligned regions in between the HSPs, if any.
Example : $frac_iden = $hit_object->frac_identical('query');
Returns : Float (2-decimal precision, e.g., 0.75).
Argument : seq_type: 'query' | 'hit' or 'sbjct' | 'total'
: default = 'query' (but see comments below).
: ('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : n/a
Comments : Different versions of Blast report different values for the total
: length of the alignment. This is the number reported in the
: denominators in the stats section:
: "Identical = 34/120 Positives = 67/120".
: NCBI BLAST uses the total length of the alignment (with gaps)
: WU-BLAST uses the length of the query sequence (without gaps).
:
: Therefore, when called with an argument of 'total',
: this method will report different values depending on the
: version of BLAST used. Total does NOT take into account HSP
: tiling, so it should not be used.
:
: To get the fraction identical among only the aligned residues,
: ignoring the gaps, call this method without an argument or
: with an argument of 'query' or 'hit'.
:
: If you need data for each HSP, use hsps() and then iterate
: through the HSP objects.
: This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If they have not
: already been tiled, they will be tiled first automatically.

framecodeprevnextTop
See documentation in Bio::Search::SearchUtils::frame()
gapscodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $hit_object->gaps( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Get the number of gaps in the aligned query, hit, or both sequences.
: Data is summed across all HSPs.
Example : $qgaps = $hit_object->gaps('query');
: $hgaps = $hit_object->gaps('hit');
: $tgaps = $hit_object->gaps(); # default = total (query + hit)
Returns : scalar context: integer
: array context without args: two-element list of integers
: (queryGaps, hitGaps)
: Array context can be forced by providing an argument of 'list' or 'array'.
:
: CAUTION: Calling this method within printf or sprintf is arrray context.
: So this function may not give you what you expect. For example:
: printf "Total gaps: %d", $hit->gaps();
: Actually returns a two-element array, so what gets printed
: is the number of gaps in the query, not the total
:
Argument : seq_type: 'query' | 'hit' or 'sbjct' | 'total' | 'list' (default = 'total')
('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : n/a
Comments : If you need data for each HSP, use hsps() and then interate
: through each HSP object.
: This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If they have not
: already been tiled, they will be tiled first automatically..
: Not relying on wantarray since that will fail in situations
: such as printf "%d", $hit->gaps() in which you might expect to
: be printing the total gaps, but evaluates to array context.
See Also : length_aln()
hspcodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $hit_object->hsp( [string] );
Purpose : Get a single HSPI object for the present HitI object.
Example : $hspObj = $hit_object->hsp; # same as 'best'
: $hspObj = $hit_object->hsp('best');
: $hspObj = $hit_object->hsp('worst');
Returns : Object reference for a Bio::Search::HSP::BlastHSP.pm object.
Argument : String (or no argument).
: No argument (default) = highest scoring HSP (same as 'best').
: 'best' or 'first' = highest scoring HSP.
: 'worst' or 'last' = lowest scoring HSP.
Throws : Exception if the HSPs have not been collected.
: Exception if an unrecognized argument is used.
See Also : hsps(), num_hsps()
hspscodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $hit_object->hsps();
Purpose : Get a list containing all HSP objects.
: Get the numbers of HSPs for the current hit.
Example : @hsps = $hit_object->hsps();
: $num = $hit_object->hsps(); # alternatively, use num_hsps()
Returns : Array context : list of Bio::Search::HSP::BlastHSP.pm objects.
: Scalar context: integer (number of HSPs).
: (Equivalent to num_hsps()).
Argument : n/a. Relies on wantarray
Throws : Exception if the HSPs have not been collected.

Returns : Integer
Argument : seq_Type = 'query' or 'hit' or 'sbjct' (Default = 'query')
('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : Exception if the argument is not recognized.
Comments : This method will report the logical length of the alignment,
: meaning that for TBLAST[NX] reports, the length is reported
: using amino acid coordinate space (i.e., nucleotides / 3).
:
: This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If they have not
: already been tiled, they will be tiled first automatically..
: If you don't want the tiled data, iterate through each HSP
: calling length() on each (use hsps() to get all HSPs).

locuscodeprevnextTop
 Title   : locus
Usage : $locus = $hit->locus();
Function: Retrieve the locus (if available) for the hit
Returns : a scalar string (empty string if not set)
Args : none
logical_lengthcodeprevnextTop
 Usage     : $hit_object->logical_length( [seq_type] );
: (mostly intended for internal use).
Purpose : Get the logical length of the hit sequence.
: If the Blast is a TBLASTN or TBLASTX, the returned length

matchescodeprevnextTop
See documentation in Bio::Search::Hit::HitI::matches()
ncodeprevnextTop

: This is the number of HSPs in the set which was ascribed
: the lowest P-value (listed on the description line).
: This number is not the same as the total number of HSPs.
: To get the total number of HSPs, use num_hsps().
Example : $n = $hit_object->n();
Returns : Integer
Argument : n/a
Throws : Exception if HSPs have not been set (BLAST2 reports).
Comments : Note that the N parameter is not reported in gapped BLAST2.
: Calling n() on such reports will result in a call to num_hsps().
: The num_hsps() method will count the actual number of
: HSPs in the alignment listing, which may exceed N in
