NAME¶
Bio::Search::Hit::BlastPullHit - A parser and hit object for BLASTN hits
SYNOPSIS¶
# generally we use Bio::SearchIO to build these objects
use Bio::SearchIO;
my $in = Bio::SearchIO->new(-format => 'blast_pull',
-file => 'result.blast');
while (my $result = $in->next_result) {
while (my $hit = $result->next_hit) {
print $hit->name, "\n";
print $hit->score, "\n";
print $hit->significance, "\n";
while (my $hsp = $hit->next_hsp) {
# process HSPI objects
}
}
}
DESCRIPTION¶
This object implements a parser for BLASTN hit output.

Mailing Lists¶
User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl
modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing
list. Your participation is much appreciated.

Support¶
Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:
bioperl-l@bioperl.org
rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive
experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please
include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if
at all possible.

APPENDIX¶
The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal
methods are usually preceded with a _
new¶
Title : new
Usage : my $obj = Bio::Search::Hit::BlastNHit->new();
Function: Builds a new Bio::Search::Hit::BlastNHit object.
Returns : Bio::Search::Hit::BlastNHit
Args : -chunk => [Bio::Root::IO, $start, $end] (required if no -parent)
-parent => Bio::PullParserI object (required if no -chunk)
-hit_data => array ref with [name description score significance]
where the array ref provided to -chunk contains an IO object
for a filehandle to something representing the raw data of the
hit, and $start and $end define the tell() position within the
filehandle that the hit data starts and ends (optional; defaults
to start and end of the entire thing described by the filehandle)
next_hsp¶
Title : next_hsp
Usage : while( $hsp = $obj->next_hsp()) { ... }
Function : Returns the next available High Scoring Pair
Example :
Returns : L<Bio::Search::HSP::HSPI> object or null if finished
Args : none
hsps¶
Usage : $hit_object->hsps();
Purpose : Get a list containing all HSP objects.
Example : @hsps = $hit_object->hsps();
Returns : list of L<Bio::Search::HSP::BlastHSP> objects.
Argument : none
hsp¶
Usage : $hit_object->hsp( [string] );
Purpose : Get a single HSPI object for the present HitI object.
Example : $hspObj = $hit_object->hsp; # same as 'best'
: $hspObj = $hit_object->hsp('best');
: $hspObj = $hit_object->hsp('worst');
Returns : Object reference for a L<Bio::Search::HSP::HSPI> object.
Argument : String (or no argument).
: No argument (default) = highest scoring HSP (same as 'best').
: 'best' = highest scoring HSP.
: 'worst' = lowest scoring HSP.
Throws : Exception if an unrecognized argument is used.

hsps(), num_hsps()
rewind¶
Title : rewind
Usage : $result->rewind;
Function: Allow one to reset the HSP iterator to the beginning, so that
next_hsp() will subsequently return the first hsp and so on.
Returns : n/a
Args : none
