NAME
pfsearchV3 - search protein and DNA generalized profiles (version 3)
SYNOPSIS
pfsearch [options] profile database
DESCRIPTION
Build protein and DNA generalized profiles and use them to scan and align sequences, and search databases.
OPTIONS
Profile
- --level
-
[-l] : level to use for cutoff
- --mode
-
[-m] : mode to use for normalization
Database
- --create-index-database
-
[-c] : output indices to given file
- --use-index-database
-
[-i] : use indices stored in given file
Heuristic
- --cutoff
-
[-C] : heuristic cutoff value
- --dump-heuristic-scores
-
[-A] : only print heuristic scores to stdout
--dump-heuristic-sequences [-D] : dump passed heuristic sequences
Filter
- --dump-filter-scores
-
[-a] : only print filter scores to stdout
- --dump-filter-sequences
-
[-d] : dump passed heuristic and filter sequences
Optimizations
- --sse2
-
[-s] : enforces SSE 2 only instruction set
- --nthreads
-
[-t] : max number of threads to use
- --max-heuristic-nthreads
-
[-T] : max number of threads to use for heuristic phase only. (IO bounds)
- --no-affinity
-
[-f] : disable CPU affinity file
- --thread-affinity
-
[-M] : file containing thread mask, one row for one thread
- --split
-
[-b] : if both SSE 2 & 4.1 are available, split half-half using linked resources
Printing output
- --output-method
-
[-o] : printing output method
-
== 0 replicates the pfseach output without options (DEFAULT)
-
== 1 simple output
-
== 2 replicates pfsearch -lxz output
-
== 3 replicates pfscan -lxz output
-
== 4 tsv output (single line tab delimited)
- --output-length
-
[-W] : maximum number of column for sequence output printing
Other
- --verbose
-
[-v] : verbose on stderr
- --help
-
[-h] : output command help
