Function

Plot potential open reading frames in a nucleotide sequence

Description

plotorf plots potential open reading frames (ORFs) for an input nucleotide sequence. ORFs in this program are defined as being regions between the specified START and STOP codons. A graphical representation of where the open reading frames are in all 6 reading frames is shown. The ORFs are displayed as blue boxes.

Algorithm

ORFs in this program are defined as being regions between START and STOP codons. The default START codon is: ATG. The default STOP codons are: TAA,TAG,TGA. You can specify your own set of start and stop codons using the -start and -stop qualifiers.

Usage

Here is a sample session with plotorf 


% plotorf 
Plot potential open reading frames in a nucleotide sequence
Input nucleotide sequence: tembl:x13776
Graph type [x11]: cps

Created plotorf.ps

Go to the input files for this example
Go to the output files for this example

Example 2

An example of specifying your own START and STOP codons with a mitochondrial sequence would be: 


% plotorf -start ATT,ATC,ATA,ATG,GTG -stop TAA,TAG,AGA,AGG 
Plot potential open reading frames in a nucleotide sequence
Input nucleotide sequence: mito.seq
Graph type [x11]: cps

Created plotorf.ps

Go to the input files for this example
Go to the output files for this example

Notes

Note that this definition of an ORF would miss those exons in eukaryotic genomic sequences which do not contain a START codon. plotorf is only really useful when dealing with prokaryotic or mRNA eukaryotic sequences.

References

None.

Warnings

ORFs in this program are defined as being regions between START and STOP codons. This definition would miss those exons in eukaryotic genomic sequences which do not contain a START codon. plotorf is therefore only really useful when dealing with prokaryotic or mRNA eukaryotic sequences.

Diagnostic Error Messages

None.

Exit status

It always exits with a status of 0.

Known bugs

None.
