NAME

Bio::Tools::Run::Alignment::Exonerate

SYNOPSIS

use Bio::Tools::Run::Alignment::Exonerate;
use Bio::SeqIO;

my $qio = Bio::SeqIO->new(-file=>$ARGV[0],-format=>'fasta');
my $query = $qio->next_seq();
my $tio = Bio::SeqIO->new(-file=>$ARGV[1],-format=>'fasta');
my $target = $sio->next_seq();

#exonerate parameters can all be passed via arguments parameter.
#parameters passed are not checked for validity

my $run = Bio::Tools::Run::Alignment::Exonerate->
    new(arguments=>'--model est2genome --bestn 10');
my $searchio_obj = $run->run($query,$target);

while(my $result = $searchio->next_result){
  while( my $hit = $result->next_hit ) {
    while( my $hsp = $hit->next_hsp ) {
      print $hsp->start."\t".$hsp->end."\n";
    }
  }
}

DESCRIPTION

Wrapper for Exonerate alignment program. You can get exonerate at http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~guy/exonerate/. This wrapper is written without parameter checking.
