Function

Finds neighbouring pairs of features in sequence(s)

Description

twofeat finds neighbouring pairs of specified features in one or more input sequences. Each feature may be specified by type, name, sense, score, tag/value pairs etc. Their relationship, e.g. their sequence separation or overlap, relative sense and order may also be specified. It writes a standard EMBOSS report file with any such feature pairs identified. By default each pair is written as a single feature but (optionally) they are written in their original form.

Algorithm

For each of the pair of features, you can specify its type name, its sense, its score and any tag/value pairs, amongst other things.

You can then specify the type of relationship that the two features should have as follows:

Minimum and maximum distance between each feature.

Distance measurement (measure from the nearest ends of the two features, from the left ends, from right ends, from the furthest ends.)

Type of overlap (any type of overlap or no overlap is allowed, Overlap required, No overlaps are allowed, Overlap required but one feature must not be completely within the other, Feature A must be completely enclosed within feature B, Feature B must be completely enclosed within feature A).

Feature sense (any sense, in the same sense or in opposite senses)

Feature order (any order, Feature A then feature B, Feature B then feature A)

The program proceeds as follows. For eachs sequence: Identify the features that match the criteria for Feature A Identify the features that match the criteria for Feature B Compare all pairs of features If they satisfy the requirements output them to the report file

By default the resulting pairs of features found are then written to a report file as a single feature from the first postion of the left-most feature to the last position of the right-most feature. You can modify the output to report the pairs of features with no changes made to them.

Usage

Here is a sample session with twofeat

Without the -twoout option the output report contains just one feature for every pair of features found.


% twofeat tembl:x65923 
Finds neighbouring pairs of features in sequence(s)
Type of first feature [*]: polyA_signal
Type of second feature [*]: polyA_site
The minimum distance between the features [0]: 10
The maximum distance between the features [0]: 50
Output report [x65923.twofeat]:

Example 2

The -twoout option makes the output report give the pairs of features found. The output report format type has been changed to display the full original pairs of features in GFF format.


% twofeat -twoout -rformat gff tembl:x65923 
Finds neighbouring pairs of features in sequence(s)
Type of first feature [*]: polyA_signal
Type of second feature [*]: polyA_site
The minimum distance between the features [0]: 10
The maximum distance between the features [0]: 50

                                  allow.
                                  The source name is usually either the name
                                  of the program that detected the feature or
                                  it is the feature table (eg: EMBL) that the

                                  values, for example '/gene' can have the
                                  value of the gene name.
                                  By default any feature tag in the feature
                                  table is allowed. You can set this to match
                                  any feature tag you wish to allow.

   -overlap            menu       [A] This allows you to specify the allowed
                                  overlaps of the features A and B.
                                  You can allow any or no overlaps, specify
                                  that they must or must not overlap, that one
                                  must or must not be wholly enclosed within
                                  another feature. (Values: A (Any); O

                                  allowed); NW (Overlap required but not
                                  within); AW (A must be all within B); BW (B
                                  must be all within A))
   -rangetype          menu       [N] This allows you to specify the positions
                                  from which the allowed minimum or maximum
                                  distance between the features is measured
                                  (Values: N (From nearest ends); L (From left

                                  sense that the two features must be on. This
                                  is ignored (always 'Any') when looking at
                                  protein sequence features. (Values: A (Any

   -order              menu       [A] This allows you to specify the required
                                  order of the two features. The order is
                                  measured from the start positions of the
                                  features. This criterion is always applied
                                  despite the specified overlap type required.

                                  features themselves will be written out. If
                                  it is left as false, then a single feature
                                  will be written out covering the two
                                  features you found.

                                  then you can specify the 'type' name of the
                                  new feature here. By default every feature
                                  in the feature table is allowed. See

Input file format

The input is a standard EMBOSS sequence query (also known as a 'USA') with associated feature information.

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: text, html, xml (uniprotxml), obo, embl (swissprot)

Where the sequence format has no feature information, a second file can be read to load the feature data. The file is specified with the qualifier -ufo xxx and the feature format is specified with the qualifier -fformat xxx

See: http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/SequenceFormats.html for further information on sequence formats.

See: http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/FeatureFormats.html for further information on feature formats.

twofeat reads two sequence inputs with feature information.

Output file format

The output is a standard EMBOSS report file.

The results can be output in one of several styles by using the command-line qualifier -rformat xxx, where 'xxx' is replaced by the name of the required format. The available format names are: embl, genbank, gff, pir, swiss, dasgff, debug, listfile, dbmotif, diffseq, draw, restrict, excel, feattable, motif, nametable, regions, seqtable, simple, srs, table, tagseq.

See: http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/ReportFormats.html for further information on report formats.

twofeat outputs a report format file. The default format is 'table'.
