    Function
</H2>
Calculate statistics of protein properties

<H2>
    Description
</H2>

<p><b>pepstats</b> reads one or more protein sequences and writes an output file with various statistics on the protein properties.  This includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Molecular weight
<li>Number of residues
<li>Average residue weight
<li>Charge
<li>Isoelectric point
<li>For each type of amino acid: number, molar percent, DayhoffStat
<li>For each physico-chemical class of amino acid: number, molar percent
<li>Probability of protein expression in E. coli inclusion bodies
<li>Molar extinction coefficient (A280)
<li>Extinction coefficient at 1 mg/ml (A280)
</ul>

    Input file format
</H2>

<b>pepstats</b> reads one or more protein sequences.
<p>
<p>

The input is a standard EMBOSS sequence query (also known as a 'USA').

<p>
Major sequence database sources defined as standard in EMBOSS
installations include srs:embl, srs:uniprot and ensembl

<p>

Data can also be read from sequence output in any supported format
written by an EMBOSS or third-party application.

<p>
The input format can be specified by using the
command-line qualifier <tt>-sformat xxx</tt>, where 'xxx' is replaced
by the name of the required format.  The available format names are:
gff (gff3), gff2, embl (em), genbank (gb, refseq), ddbj, refseqp, pir
(nbrf), swissprot (swiss, sw), dasgff and debug.

<p>

See:
<A href="http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/SequenceFormats.html">

    Data files

The Dayhoff statistic is read from the EMBOSS data file 'Edayhoff.freq'. 
You can inspect and modify this file by copying it into your current
directory with the command: 'embossdata -fetch'. 

<p>
Absorption coefficients use values read from the EMBOSS data file
'Eamino.dat'.  Values in this file assume cysteines are reduced. If
cysteines are in disulphide bridges the value should be adjusted as
documented at the top of the file, and a local copy used to override
the default values.

<p>
Molecular weights are read from a local data file Emolwt.dat.

<p>
<p>
EMBOSS data files are distributed with the application and stored
in the standard EMBOSS data directory, which is defined
by the EMBOSS environment variable EMBOSS_DATA.

<p>

To see the available EMBOSS data files, run:
<p>
<pre>
% embossdata -showall
</pre>
<p>
To fetch one of the data files (for example 'Exxx.dat') into your
current directory for you to inspect or modify, run:

<pre>

% embossdata -fetch -file Exxx.dat

</pre>
<p>

Users can provide their own data files in their own directories.
Project specific files can be put in the current directory, or for
tidier directory listings in a subdirectory called
".embossdata". Files for all EMBOSS runs can be put in the user's home
directory, or again in a subdirectory called ".embossdata".

<p>
The directories are searched in the following order:

<ul>
   <li> . (your current directory)
   <li> .embossdata (under your current directory)
   <li> ~/ (your home directory)
   <li> ~/.embossdata
</ul>
<p>

<H2>
    Notes
</H2>

<p>DayhoffStat is the amino acid's molar percentage divided by the Dayhoff statistic. The Dayhoff statistic is read from the EMBOSS data file <tt>Edayhoff.freq</tt> and is the amino acid's relative occurence per 1000 aa normalised to 100.</p>

<p>The probability of expression in inclusion bodies is sometimes referred to as a type of solubility measure. If, however, a recombinant protein is expressed in Escherichia coli, it can be expressed as soluble in the cytosol or insoluble in inclusion bodies. If the Harrison model predicts a given protein to be probably expressed in includion bodies, this doesn't mean that it is not possible to get it soluble in the cytosol. One example: Thermatoga maritima cell divison protein FtsA with a C-terminal His-Tag has a 58% Harrison probability of being expressed in inclusion bodies. However, there was plenty of soluble protein in the E. coli cytosol (F. van den Ent and J. Lowe, EMBO J. 19, 5300-5307 2000). If the protein is expressed in inclusion bodies or not is not only dependent on the sequence, but also on many other factors, such as E. coli strain, incubation temperature, type of expression vector, strength of promoter and medium. </p>
