# fuzzpro(1e)

Search for patterns in protein sequences

## NAME

fuzzpro - Search for patterns in protein sequences

## SYNOPSIS

**fuzzpro** **-sequence** *seqall* **-pattern** *pattern* **-outfile** *report*

**fuzzpro** **-help**

## DESCRIPTION

**fuzzpro** is a command line program from EMBOSS (“the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite”). It is part of the "Protein:Motifs" command group(s).

## OPTIONS

### Input section

- **-sequence** *seqall*

  - **-pattern** *pattern*

  The standard IUPAC one-letter codes for the amino acids are used. The symbol 'x' is used for a position where any amino acid is accepted. Ambiguities are indicated by listing the acceptable amino acids for a given position, between square parentheses '\[ \]'. For example: \[ALT\] stands for Ala or Leu or Thr. Ambiguities are also indicated by listing between a pair of curly brackets '{ }' the amino acids that are not accepted at a given position. For example: {AM} stands for any amino acid except Ala and Met. Each element in a pattern is separated from its neighbor by a '-'. (Optional in fuzzpro). Repetition of an element of the pattern can be indicated by following that element with a numerical value or a numerical range between parenthesis. Examples: x(3) corresponds to x-x-x, x(2,4) corresponds to x-x or x-x-x or x-x-x-x. When a pattern is restricted to either the N- or C-terminal of a sequence, that pattern either starts with a '\<' symbol or respectively ends with a '\>' symbol. A period ends the pattern. (Optional in fuzzpro). For example, \[DE\](2)HS{P}X(2)PX(2,4)C

### Output section
