=head1 NAME

ncoils - prediction of coiled-coil secondary structure elements

=head1 SYNOPSIS

ncoils [OPTION] < [FASTA FILE]

ncoils -f < /usr/share/doc/ncoils/1srya.fa

=head1 DESCRIPTION

ncoils is a program that compares a sequence to a database of known parallel two-stranded coiled-coils and derives a similarity score. By comparing this score to the distribution of scores in globular and coiled-coil proteins, the program then calculates the probability that the sequence will adopt a coiled-coil conformation. 

=head1 OPTIONS

=over

=item -f, -fasta

fasta output - coils as 'x', like '-x' in seg

=item -c

concise mode - which sequences have any coils (and how many)

=item -min_seg <int>

for concise mode - only report sequence if >= min coil segments

=item -min_P <float>

minimum P to define coil segment; DEFAULT = 0.5

=item -win <int>

window size; DEFAULT = 21

=item -w

weight heptad positions a&d the same as b,c,e,f,g

=item -v

verbose/debug mode - print extra junk

=back

=head1 EXAMPLES

C<coils-wrap -m MTIDK -i /usr/share/doc/ncoils/1srya.fa -o /tmp/coils.out -r /tmp/coils_raw.txt && less /tmp/coils.out /tmp/coils_raw.txt>

C<ncoils -win 14 < /usr/share/doc/ncoils/1srya.fa>

=head1 ENVIRONMENT

COILSDIR - specifies the directory containing the file new.mat overriding the default F</usr/share/ncoils>

=head1 FILES

=over

=item F</usr/share/ncoils/*.mat>

matrix data files
