Bio::Tools::BPbl2seq(3pm)

Bio::Tools::BPbl2seq - Lightweight BLAST parser for pair-wise sequence alignment using the BLAST algorithm.

  use Bio::Tools::BPbl2seq;
  my $report = Bio::Tools::BPbl2seq->new(-file => 't/bl2seq.out');
  $report->sbjctName;
  $report->sbjctLength;
  while(my $hsp = $report->next_feature) {
         $hsp->score;
         $hsp->bits;
         $hsp->percent;
         $hsp->P;
         $hsp->match;
         $hsp->positive;
         $hsp->length;
         $hsp->querySeq;
         $hsp->sbjctSeq;
         $hsp->homologySeq;
         $hsp->query->start;
         $hsp->query->end;
         $hsp->sbjct->start;
         $hsp->sbjct->end;
         $hsp->sbjct->seq_id;
         $hsp->sbjct->overlaps($exon);

NOTE: This module's functionality has been implemented in Bio::SearchIO::blast and therefore is not actively maintained. BPbl2seq is a package for parsing BLAST bl2seq reports. BLAST bl2seq is a program for comparing and aligning two sequences using BLAST. Although the report format is similar to that of a conventional BLAST, there are a few differences so that BPlite is unable to read bl2seq reports directly. From the user's perspective, one difference between bl2seq and other blast reports is that the bl2seq report does not print out the name of the first of the two aligned sequences. (The second sequence name is given in the report as the name of the "hit"). Consequently, BPbl2seq has no way of identifying the name of the initial sequence unless it is passed to constructor as a second argument as in:

        my $report = Bio::Tools::BPbl2seq->new(\*FH, "ALEU_HORVU");

If the name of the first sequence (the "query") is not passed to BPbl2seq.pm in this manner, the name of the first sequence will be left as "unknown". (Note that to preserve a common interface with the other BLAST programs the two sequences being compared are referred to in bl2seq as "query" and "subject" although this is perhaps a bit misleading when simply comparing 2 sequences as opposed to querying a database.) In addition, since there will only be (at most) one "subject" (hit) in a bl2seq report, one should use the method $report->next_feature, rather than $report->nextSbjct->nextHSP to obtain the next high scoring pair. One should note that the previous (0.7) version of BPbl2seq used slightly different syntax. That version had a bug and consequently the old syntax has been eliminated. Attempts to use the old syntax will return error messages explaining the (minor) recoding required to use the current syntax.
