DESCRIPTION

HHsearch version 2.0.16 (January 2013) Search a database of HMMs with a query alignment or

J. Protein homology detection by HMM-HMM comparison. Bioinformatics 21:951-960 (2005).

-i <file>

-d <file>

extension pal, list of HMM file names, one per line. Multiple dbs, HMMs, or pal
files with -d '<db1> <db2>...'

<file> may be 'stdin' or 'stdout' throughout.

Output options:
-o <file>

-Ofas <file>

output in a3m, a2m, and psi format (e.g. -Oa3m)

and hhm format (e.g. -ohhm)

-seq <int>

filter MSA by selecting most diverse set of sequences, keeping at least this many
seqs in each MSA block of length 50 (def=100)

Input alignment format:
-M a2m use A2M/A3M (default): upper case = Match; lower case = Insert; '-' = Delete; '.' =
gaps aligned to inserts (may be omitted)

-M first
use FASTA: columns with residue in 1st sequence are match states

-M [0,100]
use FASTA: columns with fewer than X% gaps are match states

-tags do NOT neutralize His-, C-myc-, FLAG-tags, and trypsin recognition sequence to
background distribution

-alt <int>

-vit use Viterbi algorithm for searching/ranking (default)

-mac use Maximum Accuracy (MAC) algorithm for searching/ranking

-forward
use Forward probability for searching

-excl <range>
