Function
</H2>
Protein pattern search
<H2>
Description
</H2>
fuzzpro uses PROSITE style patterns to search protein sequences.
<p>
Patterns are specifications of a (typically short) length of sequence to
be found. They can specify a search for an exact sequence or they can
allow various ambiguities, matches to variable lengths of sequence and
repeated subsections of the sequence.
<p>
fuzzpro intelligently selects the optimum searching algorithm to use,
depending on the complexity of the search pattern specified.
<H2>
Usage
</H2>
<b>Here is a sample session with fuzzpro</b>
<p>
<p>
<table width="90%"><tr><td bgcolor="#CCFFFF"><pre>

<pre>
Standard (Mandatory) qualifiers:
[-sequence] seqall Protein sequence(s) filename and optional
format, or reference (input USA)
-pattern pattern The standard IUPAC one-letter codes for the
amino acids are used.
The symbol 'x' is used for a position where
any amino acid is accepted.
Ambiguities are indicated by listing the
acceptable amino acids for a given position,
between square parentheses '[ ]'. For
example: [ALT] stands for Ala or Leu or Thr.
Ambiguities are also indicated by listing
between a pair of curly brackets '{ }' the
amino acids that are not accepted at a given
position. For example: {AM} stands for any
amino acid except Ala and Met.
Each element in a pattern is separated from
its neighbor by a '-'. (Optional in
fuzzpro).
Repetition of an element of the pattern can
be indicated by following that element with
a numerical value or a numerical range
between parenthesis. Examples: x(3)
corresponds to x-x-x, x(2,4) corresponds to
x-x or x-x-x or x-x-x-x.
When a pattern is restricted to either the
N- or C-terminal of a sequence, that pattern
either starts with a '<' symbol or
respectively ends with a '>' symbol.
A period ends the pattern. (Optional in
fuzzpro).
For example, [DE](2)HS{P}X(2)PX(2,4)C
[-outfile] report [*.fuzzpro] Output report file name

-rmaxseq2 integer Maximum hits to report for one sequence
General qualifiers:
-auto boolean Turn off prompts

<H2>
Input file format
</H2>
<b>fuzzpro</b> reads in normal protein sequence USAs.
<p>
<a name="input.1"></a>
<h3>Input files for usage example </h3>
'tsw:*' is a sequence entry in the example protein database 'tsw'
<p>
<h3>Pattern specification</h3>
Patterns for fuzzpro are based on the format of pattern used in the
PROSITE database, with the difference that the terminating dot '.' and
the hyphens, '-', between the characters are optional.
<p>
The PROSITE pattern definition from the PROSITE documentation follows.
<p>
<ul>
<li>The standard IUPAC one-letter codes for the amino acids are used.
<li>The symbol `x' is used for a position where any amino acid is accepted.
<li>Ambiguities are indicated by listing the acceptable amino acids for a
given position, between square parentheses `[ ]'. For example: [ALT]
stands for Ala or Leu or Thr.
<li>Ambiguities are also indicated by listing between a pair of curly
brackets `{ }' the amino acids that are not accepted at a given
position. For example: {AM} stands for any amino acid except Ala and
Met.
<li>Each element in a pattern is separated from its neighbor by a `-'.
(Optional in fuzzpro).
<li>Repetition of an element of the pattern can be indicated by following
that element with a numerical value or a numerical range between
parenthesis. Examples: x(3) corresponds to x-x-x, x(2,4) corresponds to
x-x or x-x-x or x-x-x-x.
<li>When a pattern is restricted to either the N- or C-terminal of a
sequence, that pattern either starts with a `<' symbol or respectively
ends with a `>' symbol.
<li>A period ends the pattern. (Optional in fuzzpro).
<li>All other characters, including spaces are not allowed.
</ul>
<p>
For example, in SWISSPROT entry 100K_RAT you can look for the pattern:
<pre>
[DE](2)HS{P}X(2)PX(2,4)C
</pre>
<p>
This means: Two Asps or Glus in any order followed by His, Ser, any
residue other then Pro, then two of any residue followed by Pro followed
by two to four of any residue followed by Cys.
<p>
The search is case-independent, so 'AAA' matches 'aaa'.
<H2>
Output file format
</H2>
<p>
The output is a standard EMBOSS report file.
<p>
The results can be output in one of several styles by using the
command-line qualifier <b>-rformat xxx</b>, where 'xxx' is replaced by
the name of the required format. The available format names are: embl,
genbank, gff, pir, swiss, trace, listfile, dbmotif, diffseq, excel,
feattable, motif, regions, seqtable, simple, srs, table, tagseq
<p>
See:
<A href="http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/ReportFormats.html">
http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/ReportFormats.html</A>
for further information on report formats.
<p>
<p>
By default <b>fuzzpro</b> writes a 'seqtable' report file.
