Support

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

[email protected]

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.

                            (default symbols in %STRUCTURE_SYMBOLS hash)

next_result

 Args    : none

start_element

 Title   : start_element

element_hash

 Title   : element
 Usage   : $eventhandler->element_hash({'Hsp_hit-from' => $start,
                                        'Hsp_hit-to'   => $end,

 Function: Convenience method that takes multiple simple data elements and
           maps to appropriate parameters

characters

 Title   : characters
 Usage   : $eventgenerator->characters($str)
 Function: Send a character events
 Returns : none
 Args    : string

within_element

 Title   : within_element
 Usage   : if( $eventgenerator->within_element($element) ) {}
 Function: Test if we are within a particular element
           This is different than 'in' because within can be tested
           for a whole block.
 Returns : boolean
 Args    : string element name

in_element

 Title   : in_element
 Usage   : if( $eventgenerator->in_element($element) ) {}
 Function: Test if we are in a particular element
           This is different than 'within' because 'in' only 
           tests its immediate parent.
 Returns : boolean
 Args    : string element name

start_document

 Title   : start_document
 Usage   : $eventgenerator->start_document
 Function: Handle a start document event
 Returns : none
 Args    : none

end_document

 Title   : end_document

 Function: Handles an end document event
 Returns : Bio::Search::Result::ResultI object
 Args    : none

result_count

 Title   : result_count
 Usage   : my $count = $searchio->result_count
 Function: Returns the number of results we have processed
 Returns : integer
 Args    : none

descriptor

 Title   : descriptor
 Usage   : my $descr = $parser->descriptor();
 Function: Get/Set descriptor name.  Some versions of RNAMotif do not add the
           descriptor name to the output.  This also overrides any name found
           while parsing.
 Returns : String (name of model)
 Args    : [optional] String (name of model)

model

 Title   : model
 Usage   : my $model = $parser->model();
 Function: Get/Set model; Infernal currently does not output
           the model name (Rfam ID)
 Returns : String (name of model)
 Args    : [optional] String (name of model)
 Note    : this is a synonym for descriptor()

database

 Title   : database
 Usage   : my $database = $parser->database();
 Function: Get/Set database; Infernal currently does not output
           the database name
 Returns : String (database name)
 Args    : [optional] String (database name)

query_accession

 Title   : query_accession
 Usage   : my $acc = $parser->query_accession();
 Function: Get/Set query (model) accession; RNAMotif currently does not output
           the accession number
 Returns : String (accession)
 Args    : [optional] String (accession)

algorithm_version

 Title   : algorithm_version
 Usage   : my $ver = $parser->algorithm_version();
 Function: Get/Set algorithm version (not defined in RNAMotif output)
 Returns : String (accession)
 Args    : [optional] String (accession)

hsp_minscore

 Title   : hsp_minscore
 Usage   : my $cutoff = $parser->hsp_minscore();
 Function: Get/Set min score cutoff (for generating Hits/HSPs).
 Returns : score (number)
 Args    : [optional] score (number)
 Note    : Cannot be set along with hsp_maxscore()

hsp_maxscore

 Title   : hsp_maxscore
 Usage   : my $cutoff = $parser->hsp_maxscore();
 Function: Get/Set max score cutoff (for generating Hits/HSPs).
 Returns : score (number)
 Args    : [optional] score (number)
 Note    : Cannot be set along with hsp_minscore()

structure_symbols

 Title   : structure_symbols
 Usage   : my $hashref = $parser->structure_symbols();
 Function: Get/Set RNA structure symbols
 Returns : Hash ref of delimiters (5' stem, 3' stem, single-strand, etc)
         : default = < (5-prime)
                     > (3-prime)
                     . (single-strand)
                     ? (unknown) 
 Args    : Hash ref of substitute delimiters, using above keys.

_motif2meta

 Title   : _motif2meta
 Usage   : my ($rna, $meta) = $parser->_motif2meta($str, $descr);
 Function: Creates meta string from sequence and descriptor
 Returns : array of sequence, meta strings
 Args    : Array of string data and descriptor data
 Note: This is currently a quick and simple way of making simple
 RNA structures (stem-loops, helices, etc) from RNAMotif descriptor
 data in the output file.  It does not currently work with pseudoknots,
 triplets, G-quartets, or other more complex RNA structural motifs.
