Function
Draw a threshold dotplot of two sequencesDescription
dotmatcher generates a dotplot from two input sequences. The dotplot is an intuitive graphical representation of the regions of similarity between two sequences. All positions from the first input sequence are compared with all positions from the second input sequence using a specified substitution matrix. The two sequences are the axes of the rectangular dotplot. Wherever there is "similarity" between a position from each sequence a dot is plotted. The threshold conditions for "similarity" are defined by the user.
Algorithm
All positions from the first input sequence are compared with all positions from the second input sequence and scored, using the specified substitution matrix. This produces a matrix of scores from which local regions of similarity (corresponding to diagonals in the dotplot) are identified. A window of user-specified length is moved along all possible diagonals. Each position in the window corresponds to a pair-wise score from the scoring matrix. The score for the entire window is the sum of the scores for individual positions within it. If the window score is above the user-defined threshold, then a line is plotted on the dotplot corresponding to the window.

Input file format
dotmatcher reads two nucleotide or protein sequences.
The input is a standard EMBOSS sequence query (also known as a 'USA').
Major sequence database sources defined as standard in EMBOSS installations include srs:embl, srs:uniprot and ensembl
Data can also be read from sequence output in any supported format written by an EMBOSS or third-party application.
The input format can be specified by using the command-line qualifier -sformat xxx, where 'xxx' is replaced by the name of the required format. The available format names are: gff (gff3), gff2, embl (em), genbank (gb, refseq), ddbj, refseqp, pir (nbrf), swissprot (swiss, sw), dasgff and debug.
See: http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/SequenceFormats.html for further information on sequence formats.

Output file format
The output is to the specified graphics device.
The results can be output in one of several formats by using the command-line qualifier -graph xxx, where 'xxx' is replaced by the name of the required device. Support depends on the availability of third-party software packages.
The device names that output to a file are: ps (postscript), cps (colourps), png, gif, pdf, svg, hpgl, hp7470, hp7580, das, data.
The other available device names are: meta, x11 (xwindows), tek (tek4107t), tekt (tektronix), xterm, text.
Output can be turned off by specifying none (null).
See: http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/GraphicsDevices.html for further information on supported devices.

Data files
It uses the specified matrix substitution file to compare the two sequences.For protein sequences EBLOSUM62 is used for the substitution matrix. For nucleotide sequence, EDNAFULL is used. Others can be specified.
EMBOSS data files are distributed with the application and stored in the standard EMBOSS data directory, which is defined by the EMBOSS environment variable EMBOSS_DATA.
To see the available EMBOSS data files, run:
% embossdata -showall
To fetch one of the data files (for example 'Exxx.dat') into your current directory for you to inspect or modify, run:
% embossdata -fetch -file Exxx.dat
Users can provide their own data files in their own directories. Project specific files can be put in the current directory, or for tidier directory listings in a subdirectory called ".embossdata". Files for all EMBOSS runs can be put in the user's home directory, or again in a subdirectory called ".embossdata".
The directories are searched in the following order:
- . (your current directory)
- .embossdata (under your current directory)
- ~/ (your home directory)
- ~/.embossdata
Notes
Where the two sequences have substantial regions of similarity, the dots line up to form diagonal lines. It is possible to see at a glance such local regions of similarity. It is also easy to see other features such as repeats (which form parallel diagonal lines), and insertions or deletions (which form breaks or discontinuities in the diagonal lines).
