NAME

Bio::Tools::Tmhmm - parse TMHMM output (TransMembrane HMM)

SYNOPSIS

use Bio::Tools::Tmhmm;
my $parser = Bio::Tools::Tmhmm->new(-fh => $filehandle );
while ( my $tmhmm_feat = $parser->next_result ) {
   # do something, e.g.
   push @tmhmm_feat, $tmhmm_feat;
}

DESCRIPTION

TMHMM is software for the prediction of transmembrane helices in proteins. See http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/TMHMM/ for more details.

This module parses the "long output" format of TMHMM 2.0 and creates a Bio:SeqFeature::Generic object for each TMHelix feature found from lines like this:

my_sequence_id  TMHMM2.0  TMhelix     54    76
